Q:
How does piri piri seasoning enhance the flavour of halloumi strips?
Asked on 17/03/2025 15:07
A:
Piri piri seasoning enhances the flavour of halloumi strips by adding a bold spicy, tangy, and slightly smoky kick that complements the cheese’s rich, salty profile.
Heat & Spice – The chilli in piri piri seasoning brings a gentle or fiery heat, balancing halloumi’s natural saltiness with an exciting punch.
Tangy Zing – Ingredients like lemon, vinegar, or citrus extracts add a fresh tang that cuts through the creamy texture of halloumi, enhancing its depth of flavour.
Smoky & Herby Notes – Paprika, garlic, and oregano contribute a warm, smoky undertone and aromatic complexity, making every bite more flavorful.
Crispy & Caramelised Coating – When grilled or fried, the seasoning helps create a crispy, slightly charred crust, enhancing both texture and taste.
Piri piri elevates halloumi strips from simple to bold and exciting, making them perfect for wraps, salads, or as a stand-alone appetizer with a cooling dip.
Q:
What’s the best way to cook piri piri halloumi strips for the perfect crispy texture?
Asked on 17/03/2025 15:06
A:
The best way to cook piri piri halloumi strips for a crispy texture is to use high heat and a method that removes excess moisture while enhancing the crust. Here’s how:
Pan-Frying (Best for Maximum Crispiness)
Pat Dry – Before cooking, pat the halloumi strips dry with a paper towel to remove excess moisture.
Preheat the Pan – Heat a non-stick or cast-iron pan over medium-high heat.
Use a Little Oil – Add a small amount of oil (olive oil or vegetable oil) to the pan—halloumi has natural fats, so too much oil can make it greasy.
Cook Until Golden – Fry for 1-2 minutes per side or until the exterior is golden brown and crispy. Avoid over-flipping to let a good crust form.
Serve Immediately – Halloumi is best enjoyed fresh off the pan while it's crispy on the outside and soft inside.
Air Frying (For an Even, Crunchy Finish)
Preheat Air Fryer to 200°C (400°F).
Lightly Coat with Oil – Spray or brush a small amount of oil on the strips for an even crisp.
Arrange in a Single Layer – Avoid overcrowding to allow proper air circulation.
Cook for 6-8 Minutes – Flip halfway through until golden and crispy.
Oven Baking (For Larger Batches)
Preheat Oven to 220°C (425°F).
Line a Tray with Parchment Paper – This prevents sticking and helps even crisping.
Lightly Oil the Strips – Brush with a bit of oil or use a spray.
Bake for 10-12 Minutes – Flip halfway through for an even golden-brown finish.
Serving Tip
Pair with a cooling dip like garlic yogurt, aioli, or a citrusy dressing to balance the heat from the piri piri seasoning. These crispy halloumi strips are perfect in wraps, salads, or as a flavorful appetizer!
