Directions:
- This will make 2 servings of halloumi decorated with olives.
- Cut 2 slices of halloumi cheese 3/8 inch thick and about 3 inches by 4 inches in size from a block of cheese, rinse to remove some of the salt and pat dry with a paper towel.
- Take the 5 inch long piece of baguette and half it length wise.
- Butter the two baguette halves and grill.
- Heat another frying pan, add about an 1/8 inch of olive oil.
- When a drop of water dances and sizzles on the hot surface, place the halloumi slices in the pan.
- Grill for about two minutes or until golden.
- Flip the grilled cheese slices over and repeat.
- At some point while the cheese is grilling, the baguette halves will be golden, remove quickly and place each half, grilled side up, on a serving plate.
- Squeeze a few drops of lemon on the grilled cheese, remove from pan and place on grilled baguette halves.
- Push the olives halves into the slightly softened grilled halloumi and serve.
- I've used a garlic baguette with good results. Also, I have been known to spread a very small amount basil pesto on the grilled bread before placing the cheese.
- I have also replaced the olives with slices of grilled tomatoes, dusted with coarsely ground sea salt.
- Enjoy!
