Delicious Halloumi Fries Paired with Olympus Greek Yoghurt Dip
Ingredients
Halloumi Fries
- 3 teaspoons dukkah
- 75 grams plain flour
- 1-2 blocks Olympus Halloumi approx 450g cut into chunky fries
- 1 cup oil, for frying
Greek Yoghurt Dip
- 1/2 cup Olympus Greek Yoghurt
- 2 teaspoons fresh mint, chopped finely
- 1 lemon zested, and then cut into wedges
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Whisk together the yoghurt with the lemon zest and some seasoning, then swirl through the mint.
- On a plate, stir the dukkah into the flour, then roll the halloumi in the mixture so that it’s evenly coated.
- Heat the oil in a shallow, heavy-bottomed pan or casserole dish until 180C on a cooking thermometer, or a piece of bread browns in 20 secs. Working in batches, carefully lower the halloumi into the oil and cook for 2 mins until crisp and golden, then drain on kitchen paper.
- Sprinkle over the dukkah, and serve with the lemon wedges and the yoghurt sauce for dipping.
