Kathys Fried Halloumi Cheese With Lime and Caper Vinaigrette image

A starter for 6 or light meal for 4 with French/pitta bread We had this as a delicious starter at a friends house, and I begged her for the recipe, I cant wait to try it!! I'm guessing at the amount of halloumi, but basically you want to have about four 'fingers' per person, as a starter. The dressing was marvellous! I love halloumi but have never tried making it, well, thats now going to change :D

I had some trouble finding halloumi cheese at my local grocery store, but I was able to find it online. It was definitely worth the extra effort.

I found that the cheese was a bit too oily. I think I'll try frying it in less oil next time.

This dish was a bit too salty for me. I think I'll try using less salt next time.

I was a bit hesitant to try this recipe because I'm not a big fan of halloumi cheese, but I'm so glad I did! The cheese was surprisingly delicious and the vinaigrette was the perfect complement. I will definitely be making this again.

This recipe is a keeper! The cheese was crispy on the outside and gooey on the inside, just the way I like it. The vinaigrette was also very tasty. I'll definitely be making this again.
