Fried Halloumi Sticks are a savory snack or appetizer originating from the Mediterranean, particularly Cyprus, where Halloumi cheese is a staple. Made by slicing Halloumi into strips, coating them lightly (often with flour or breadcrumbs), and frying them until golden brown, these sticks boast a satisfying crispy texture and a rich, salty flavor. Halloumi itself is a semi-hard, brined cheese typically made from a blend of goat’s and sheep’s milk, which is high in protein and calcium. While the cheese is nutrient-rich, the frying process can add extra calories and fat, making moderation key for balanced eating. Fried Halloumi Sticks are often enjoyed with dipping sauces or salads, offering a combination of indulgence and comforting Mediterranean flavors. Their unique texture and flavor make them a delightful way to explore Mediterranean cuisine in a bite-sized form.
