Halloumi has got to be one of my all time favourite cheeses. It is salty, firm, versatile and it makes a delightful squeaky noice when you chew it. Halloumi makes a great addition to salads and cheese platters. It has often come to my rescue when I discover last minute at a dinner party that a guest is vegetarian!

In this recipe, we use Vasse Valley's award-winning Roasted Hemp Seed Dukkah to spice up a traditional seared Halloumi. A drizzle of honey after frying creates the perfect sweet and sour combo.
