Steps:
- Pat cheese dry with kitchen paper.
- Using a sharp knife, slice it into 8 slices.
- Now prepare the dressing: Mash the capers slightly and mix in all other ingredients together in a small mixing bowl. Go easy on the salt since halloumi is quite salty.
- When you're ready to serve the halloumi, heat the oil in a frying pan over a medium heat.
- When the oil is really hot, press each slice of cheese into seasoned flour to coat it on both sides.
- Add them to the hot pan and cook 1 min on each side. The color should be a nice golden brown.
- Serve them straight away with the dressing poured over and garnished with coriander.

Steps:
- First of all unwrap the cheese and pat it dry with kitchen paper. Then, using a sharp knife, slice it into eight slices, including the ends. Now prepare the dressing by simply whisking all the ingredients together in a small mixing bowl. When you're ready to serve the halloumi, heat the oil in a frying-pan over a medium heat. When the oil is really hot, press each slice of cheese into seasoned flour to coat it on both sides, then add them to the hot pan as they are done - they take 1 minute on each side to cook, so by the time the last one's in it will almost be time to turn the first one over. They need to be a good golden colour on each side.Serve them straight away on warmed plates with the dressing poured over. This is good served with lightly toasted pitta bread or Greek bread with toasted sesame seeds.

Steps:
- In a bowl, mix the oil, lemon, capers, garlic and rosemary. Add the sliced cheese, turning to coat and cover. Marinate for at least one hour.
- Preheat the grill to medium-high heat (or fry in a pan over medium-high heat). Remove the cheese from the marinade reserving the vinaigrette. Grill the halloumi until browned, about 2 minutes each side. Don't overcook. Cool and cut into smaller pieces and toss with the basil, tomatoes and reserved vinaigrette. Season with salt and pepper and serve over greens, if desired.

Tips:
- Select the right halloumi: Choose a halloumi that is firm and has a slightly rubbery texture. Avoid halloumi that is too soft or crumbly.
- Marinate the halloumi: Marinating the halloumi in olive oil, herbs, and spices will help to infuse it with flavor. You can marinate the halloumi for as little as 30 minutes or up to overnight.
- Fry the halloumi over medium heat: Frying the halloumi over medium heat will help to prevent it from burning. Cook the halloumi until it is golden brown on all sides.
- Make the lime and caper vinaigrette: The lime and caper vinaigrette is a refreshing and tangy sauce that complements the fried halloumi perfectly. To make the vinaigrette, simply whisk together lime juice, olive oil, capers, and parsley.
- Serve the fried halloumi with the lime and caper vinaigrette: Serve the fried halloumi immediately with the lime and caper vinaigrette. You can also garnish the halloumi with fresh parsley or mint.
Conclusion:
Crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, this fried halloumi is a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or main course. Serve it with your favorite dipping sauce, such as tzatziki or hummus, and enjoy!
