Ultimate Halloumi
Cut into slices, dip in beaten egg till well covered, roll in semolina till well coated.
Fry in olive oil till golden.
Serve drizzled with runny honey.
Enjoy! wine

riverwalk... SNAP! And how senseless is this? We are being bombarded with facts (or 'facts') about the perils of excessive sugar in our diets on the one hand, then bombarded with cookery and foodie programmes on the tele on the other? Madness, I reckon.

Halloumi, tho, I 'get' and like, tho not in its slapped-on-a-plate as is, state. Needs at least grilling and tarting up a bit.

My 'local' round the corner has on its menu 'Battered Halloumi, chips 'n' peas', it's lovely, very popular, and makes a change from the usual Pub Grub standard - 'Vegetarian Lasagne'...

We've just discovered halloumi soldiers for our boiled eggs - lovely!
