Made in an air fryer, you won't be able to stop at just one of these crispy, oozy haloumi chips! - Greer Worsley

Ingredients

Dollop of tomato chutney *to serve

Step 1

Cut haloumi into long, thin slices.
Step 2

Whisk egg and milk in a shallow bowl. Place flour and crumbs in seperate bowls.

Step 4

Place in an air fryer at 200C and cook for 10 minutes. Turn over the fries and cook for a further 5 minutes until golden and crispy all over. Cheese should be melted and oozy. Serve immediately with lemon wedes on the side, and sour cream and tomato chutney for dipping.

Recipe Notes

from Australia’s Best Recipes team

You can use regular breadcrumbs instead of panko.

If you don't have an air fryer, you can cook the haloumi fries in the oven. Just work up to step 3, place the crumbed haloumi on oven trays and bake in a hot oven for 20 - 30 minutes.

Haloumi is available in a variety of brands and sizes. The large logs make it easier to cut into fries but you could also use 2 - 3 smaller packets.
