How to Fry Halloumi for this Bulgur Salad<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The simplest way to cook halloumi is to just fry slices in a dry non-stick skillet or grill pan<\/a>. There’s no need for oil, in fact dry-frying helps create a nice golden crust on the outside while keeping the inside soft and perfectly ready to add to the salad. Thanks to the low levels of acid in this cheese, it remains firm on the outside and instead of melting, it browns instead. Which is exactly why it’s such a great popular choice for summer grilling. No need to wait until summer, it’s fantastic anytime of year!<\/p>\n\n\n
