Halloumi Schnitzel

If you’re a fan of cheesy goodness, then you need to try Halloumi Schnitzel. This dish is the perfect combination of crispy and cheesy, making it a mouth-watering treat that you won’t be able to resist.

Halloumi Schnitzel

Just imagine: juicy slices of halloumi cheese, coated in a crunchy and flavorful breading, fried to golden perfection.

But what exactly is Halloumi? This salty, semi-hard cheese is a staple in Mediterranean cuisine and is made from a mixture of goat and sheep milk. It has a high melting point, which means that it can be fried or grilled without losing its shape or becoming too soft.

To make Halloumi Schnitzel, start by slicing the cheese into thin slices. Dip the slices into beaten egg and coat them in a matzah meal mixture. Then, fry the slices until they’re golden brown and crispy.

The result? A deliciously cheesy and crispy schnitzel that’s perfect for a quick and easy dinner or as a fun appetizer for your next party. Serve it up with some lemon wedges and a sprinkle of parsley for a complete meal.

So, next time you’re in the mood for something cheesy and satisfying, give Halloumi Schnitzel a try. It will transport you straight to the Mediterranean.

But don’t just take my word for it, you’ve got to taste it for yourself. Scroll down below for the recipe!

Author: Micah Siva

Serves: 6

  • 2, 8-oz packages of halloumi, patted dry
  • 2 eggs, whisked
  • 1 cup matzo meal
  • 2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika

Preparation:

  1. Slice the halloumi into 1/2-inch slices, approximately 6 per package. Pat dry with a paper towel. Set aside.
  2. Whisk eggs in a shallow bowl, and in a separate bowl combine matzah meal, garlic powder, paprika, sea salt and pepper.
  3. Dip the halloumi in the eggs, and coat with the matzah meal mixture. Repeat with all the halloumi pieces. Transfer to a baking tray until ready to fry.
