About Grilled halloumi with tomato jam

Grilled Halloumi with Tomato Jam combines the rich, salty flavor of Cypriot halloumi cheese with the sweet and tangy balance of homemade tomato jam. Halloumi, a semi-hard cheese traditional to Mediterranean cuisine, is renowned for its high melting point, making it ideal for grilling or pan-searing until golden and crisp. Tomato jam adds a layer of natural sweetness from ripe tomatoes, often enhanced with a touch of sugar, vinegar, and spices like cinnamon or chili for depth. Packed with protein and calcium, halloumi supports bone health but is high in sodium, so moderation is key. The tomato jam offers antioxidants like lycopene for heart health but can be calorie-heavy depending on sugar content. This dish celebrates the fusion of savory and sweet while delivering a satisfying bite rooted in Mediterranean flavors, perfect for a balanced appetizer or a vegetarian-friendly plate.
