Halloumi is a thick, delicious cheese that takes on the texture and flavor of whatever it’s cooked with.

And there’s hardly a better combination than our easy homemade hot honey and harissa, to make this Cypriot cheese sing. Delicately fried, drizzled with lime zest and pistachio, and served alongside endive and fennel, we’d recommend preparing extra, because we guarantee anyone you serve this to is going to want seconds.
