This dish is a great mix of salty flavour from the cheese and smoky flavour from the charred bell peppers. It's lovely combined with a cool and creamy cucumber salad … why not try it and see!

This is making my mouth water.
This looks so good!
Interesting. I have never had fried cheese.
Love the look of the cucumber salad, what a wonderful side for a wide variety of dishes. I will definitely be giving it a go.
Mouthwatering
This looks like a perfect lunch! I never fry cheese so I will have to give it a try.
It makes for a pretty plate. I'm sure it's delicious too.

This looks so yummy! Valerie
I would really enjoy something like this. So good!
Not for me. Haloumi is tooo salty for me, and I only like capsicum raw. It does look lovely though.
Cucumber salad. Now that sounds interesting.

After the excesses of the festivities we return to healthy life again.
Very good night
This sounds and looks wonderful. I've had fried goat cheese, so this might be something I would look for when I go shopping.
That sounds like it could be spicy.
Excellent post Jan! Thank you for the information about cucumbers! Big Hugs!
Love the recipe too!
Thank you Jan, just the thing I was looking for today!
Mmm. I'm a newcomer to halloumi and we do enjoy it. Thank you for sharing this recipe!
Oh fried cheese does sound good :)
Hi Jan, Thanks for the recipe and cucumber info. We love cucumbers!

I loved the Halloumi I fried in Kerry Gold butter but found it way too salty. I bought another block of it but haven't had the nerve to try frying it again, maybe in some coconut oil or avocado oil this time.
I LOVE Halloumi! This looks tasty!
Oh, how I miss halloumi!xxx
