  • Serving 4
  • Preparation 15
  • Cooking 10

Ingredients

  • 1 block (200 g) L’Ancêtre Organic Halloumi
  • 1 egg
  • 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
  • 1/4 cup finely grated L’Ancêtre Organic Parmesan
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • Cooking oil spray (optional)

Golden and crispy on the outside with a warm, chewy centre, these L’Ancêtre Organic Halloumi bites are an easy appetizer everyone will love. Coated in a seasoned Parmesan panko crust and cooked in the air fryer, they’re ready in minutes and perfect for dipping.

Preparation

  1. Pat the halloumi dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture, then cut it into 2 cm (¾-inch) cubes.
  2. Beat the egg in a small bowl.
  3. In a separate bowl, combine the panko, grated Parmesan, paprika, garlic powder and black pepper.
  4. Dip each halloumi cube into the egg, then coat thoroughly in the breadcrumb mixture.
  5. Arrange the cubes in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Lightly spray with cooking oil if desired.
  6. Air fry at 400°F (200°C) for 10 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through cooking, until the coating is golden brown and crisp.
  7. Serve immediately with marinara sauce, spicy mayonnaise or a lemon yogurt dip.

These bites are best enjoyed fresh from the air fryer while the coating is crisp and the halloumi is warm and perfectly chewy.
