Learn how to cook halloumi with our easy video guide for golden pan-fried halloumi.
Slice the halloumi block into roughly 1cm/戮in thick slices, you can slice lengthways or widthways depending on how large you want the pieces. The more even the slices, the more evenly they will cook.
Heat a frying pan over a medium heat. Once the pan is hot, add the halloumi slices in a single layer, making sure they don鈥檛 overlap.
Cook for 2 minutes on one side, or until golden. Use a fish slice to check the undersides- if they need more colour then give it another minute and check again.
Carefully turn the slices and cook for between 1鈥�2 minutes on the other side, until golden. Keep an eye on them as they can brown very quickly.
