Ingredients

1 Block Halloumi Cheese
2 Tbsp All-Purpose Flour
1 Tsp Mild Smoked Spanish Paprika
1/2 Tsp Garlic Powder
1/4 Tsp Black Pepper
2 Tbsp Olive Oil
1 Tbsp Butter
1 Tsp Parsley - Chopped
1 Lemon - Wedged
1/2 Cup Greek yogurt
1 Clove Garlic - Minced
1 Tbsp Lemon Juice - Fresh Squeezed
1 Tsp Olive Oil
1 Tsp Salt and Pepper - To Taste

Directions

Slice the halloumi into fry-shaped sticks about 1/2 inch thick.
In a shallow bowl, combine the flour, smoked paprika, garlic powder, and black pepper.
Lightly coat each halloumi fry in the seasoned flour, shaking off any excess.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet or cast-iron pan over medium heat. Add the butter if using.
Place the halloumi fries in a single layer and cook for 2–3 minutes per side, turning until all sides are golden brown and crispy.
Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate for 30 seconds to absorb any excess oil.
Stir together the yogurt, garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and pepper to make the dipping sauce.
Sprinkle the fries with fresh parsley and serve immediately with lemon wedges and the garlic lemon yogurt dip.
