Halloumi fries

French fries are a big thing in the Levant. I think, at least in my family, there is rarely a table set without homemade fries. It’s totally crazy! Even with the family in Lebanon it’s like that. The Levant is a region that is totally addicted to fries. And now imagine that the fries are made of halloumi …

Hold on who can! Fried or grilled halloumi alone makes me dance with joy, but in a crispy breading as chips? That’s too much! That’s too delicious! That’s just perversely good! Sharing is out of the question – and I say that as a person who really likes to share everything. Well, sometimes I do let someone “steal” a fritter or two 🙂

By the way, the breading is very simple and contains a little taste surprise: Za’atar! I simply mix this fanciful spice mixture of thyme, sesame, sumac and salt with the flour and give the halloumi fritters a perfect first layer. Then I pull the fritters through beaten egg and immediately turn them in fine breadcrumbs. It really goes in a jiffy! In about 30 minutes, the halloumi fritters are crispy on your plate.

You need a dip? Mayo, ketchup, BBQ sauce or just plain – just serve whatever you like with fries. I always have amba with my halloumi fries. It’s a spicy sauce made from mango that really goes perfectly with it. It’s slightly spicy and nicely fruity.

And now it’s your turn! I can’t wait to hear what you think of the halloumi fries. Try the recipe and share your opinion in the comments.
