Baked Halloumi Fries

Baked Halloumi Fries

These baked halloumi fries are tender, crispy, and perfect for a snack or appetizer. You can shallow fry in a neutral oil, but baking is healthier with less mess. An even easier option for a dipping sauce would be marinara.

Ingredients

Dipping Sauce

  • 3 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons sweet chili sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sour cream
  • salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Halloumi Fries

  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 large egg, beaten
  • 8 ounces halloumi cheese, cut into French fry-shaped sticks
  • 1/2 cup anko breadcrumbs

Directions

Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2
Whisk mayonnaise, chili sauce, and sour cream together in a small bowl until well combined. Season with salt and black pepper, and refrigerate until ready to use.

Step 3
Whisk flour, garlic powder, and paprika together in a shallow bowl. Place beaten egg in another shallow bowl, and place bread crumbs in a third bowl.

Step 4
Dredge halloumi fries in flour mixture, then dip into egg and, finally, press into bread crumbs, being sure all sides are well coated. Place halloumi fries on the prepared baking sheet about 1/2-inch apart.

Step 5
Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown and crispy, 20 to 25 minutes. Serve immediately with dipping sauce.

Cook’s Note:

Halloumi cheese is somewhat seasonal unless you go to a Mediterranean market. Typically, packaged halloumi has a long shelf life with a ?Best By? date over a year. If you enjoy halloumi, I recommend buying several packages while they?re available and inexpensive to enjoy throughout the year.
