Equipment
- Frying Pan
Ingredients
Tacos
- 4 mini tortilla wraps
- 225 g (8 oz) Halloumi sliced into 8 strips
- 2 tablespoon honey
- 1 tablespoon hot sauce
- ½ teaspoon lime juice
Slaw
- ¼ small red cabbage finely sliced
- ½ small carrot grated
- ½ medium red onion finely sliced
- 2 tablespoon lime juice
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- salt & pepper to season
To Serve
- 4 tablespoon Greek yoghurt
- squeeze lime juice
- fresh coriander
- extra hot honey drizzle
Instructions
- Make the slaw – in a bowl, mix together the shredded red cabbage, grated carrot, and sliced red onion. Add a squeeze of lime juice and a pinch of salt. Toss everything together and set aside.
- Heat a frying pan over medium heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Fry the halloumi strips for 2–3 minutes on each side until golden.
- In a small bowl, mix the honey, hot sauce and lime juice together to make the glaze.
- Turn the heat off under the pan and pour the glaze over the halloumi. Let it bubble slightly in the residual heat so it coats the cheese nicely.
- Warm the tortillas in a dry frying pan for 30 seconds each side or pop them in the microwave for a few seconds.
- Mix a little Greek yoghurt with a squeeze of lime juice to serve.
- Time to build your tacos – add a spoonful of slaw, a couple of strips of glazed halloumi, a dollop of yoghurt, and a sprinkle of fresh coriander. Finish with an extra drizzle of hot honey if you fancy a bit more spice.
Notes
- Pat the halloumi dry before frying — it helps it go nice and crispy.
- Adjust the spice level to suit your taste — start with a little hot sauce and add more if you like extra heat.
- The slaw can be made ahead and kept in the fridge for up to a day; it actually tastes better once it’s had time to soften slightly.
- Warm your tortillas before filling so they don’t crack when folding.
- If you’ve got leftovers, store the halloumi and slaw separately in the fridge and reheat the halloumi in a frying pan or air fryer until hot and crisp again.
