Halloumi Wraps Food

GRILLED HALLOUMI WRAPS

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat, and set a grill pan on top of the grate.
• Whisk together olive oil and lemon juice in a small bowl; set aside.
• Toss together bell pepper and onion in a small bowl. Mix in 1/2 of the oil mixture and season with salt, to taste. Transfer to the hot grill pan.
• Cook vegetables on the preheated grill until lightly charred but still firm to the bite, 5 to 6 minutes. Remove pan from the grill and allow vegetables to cool. Lower the grill temperature to medium.
• Brush halloumi cheese slices with the remaining oil mixture. Cook on the preheated grill, flipping carefully, until grill marks appear and cheese has softened slightly, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Remove from grill and place on an aluminum foil-covered plate to keep warm.
• Spread the tortillas with hummus and top with spinach. Divide the peppers and onions between the tortillas, add 2 halloumi slices to each tortilla, then top with olives. Roll up and serve immediately.

HALLOUMI WRAPS

Steps:

• Mix together the curry powder, yoghurt, lemon juice and olive oil. Coat the halloumi in the marinade, cover and chill in the fridge for at least 1 hour.
• Meanwhile, make the raita by mixing all the ingredients together in a small bowl. Season well with salt and pepper and chill in the fridge.
• Preheat the grill to medium-high.
• Thread the marinated halloumi pieces onto two metal skewers, reserving any leftover marinade. Cook the halloumi skewers under the grill for 5-7 minutes, turning regularly and brushing over any remaining marinade. Once the halloumi pieces are golden-brown and beginning to char, remove them from the skewers and set aside.
• Warm the wraps for 20 seconds each in a microwave, then fill with the halloumi, raita, mango chutney and Baby Gem lettuce.

ROASTED PEPPER & HALLOUMI WRAPS

Steps:

• Sprinkle both sides of the halloumi with the oregano. Heat the oil in a non stick frying pan, then briefly fry the halloumi on both sides until golden. Meanwhile, heat the flat breads over a naked gas flame for a few seconds on each side to warm them. (Alternatively you can do this in a large frying pan.)
• Halve the peppers (removing any stray seeds) and thickly slice, then add to the pan with the aubergine and olives. Heat through, squeeze over two of the lemon wedges and season well. To serve, divide the mixture and the parsley sprigs between the wraps, and top each with a lemon wedge for squeezing over.

HALLOUMI FAJITAS

Steps:

• Split each halloumi block through the middle lengthways (they should have a natural seam). Cut each half into four strips. Heat half the oil in a frying pan over a medium heat, and fry the halloumi strips for a few minutes on each side until golden. Transfer to a plate and set aside.
• Heat the remaining oil in the pan over a high heat, and fry the onion and peppers for 5 mins until just soft and starting to char. Add the garlic, paprika and coriander with some seasoning and cook for 1 min more. Pour in the lime juice and fried halloumi, and stir very gently so the halloumi doesn't break up. Will keep at room temperature for a few hours. Reheat over a low heat with a little water.
• Warm the wraps in a low oven wrapped in foil. Alternatively, warm two at a time for 10 seconds in the microwave (not wrapped in foil), or by holding them directly over a gas flame with a pair of tongs (this will give you flavourful charred edges).
• Pile the halloumi filling into the warm wraps, with a few slices of avocado each, some coriander leaves, and spoonfuls of chilli sauce or soured cream, if you like.

GRILLED-HALLOUMI-AND-VEGETABLE WRAPS

Steps:

• Whisk together labneh, garlic, 1 tablespoon oil, and a pinch of salt. Heat a grill or grill pan to medium-high. Drizzle cheese, radicchio, zucchini, and bell pepper with remaining oil; season vegetables with salt and pepper.
• Brush grates with oil and grill vegetables, flipping once, until tender and charred in places, about 8 minutes total. Transfer to a plate; cover to keep warm. Grill cheese, flipping once, until charred in places and hot, 3 to 4 minutes total. Blister tortillas over grill, flipping once, then transfer to a clean towel to keep warm.
• To serve, smear labneh mixture over each tortilla, pile with vegetables and cheese, and scatter with basil. Fold and serve immediately.
