Air fryer halloumi fries: 8–10 min at 200°C

Instructions

  • 1.Dry and cut

    Drain the halloumi and pat it thoroughly dry.
    Cut into sticks about 1.5 cm thick.
    Even-sized pieces brown more consistently.

  • 2.Mix the dip

    Mix the yogurt with a few drops of juice from the lemon half and the pepper.
    Cut the remaining lemon into wedges for serving.

  • 3.Cook the fries

    Coat the sticks with a thin film of oil.
    Arrange in a spaced single layer and air fry at 200°C for 8–10 minutes.
    Turn after 4 minutes and stop once the surfaces are lightly golden.

  • 4.Eat while warm

    Serve straight away with the dip and lemon.
    Halloumi holds its shape and becomes firmer as it cools.
    It needs no extra salt.

Tips from Atelier Airfryer

No breading needed

This version browns the cheese itself.
Wet halloumi colours poorly; drying it matters more than adding extra oil.

Avoid crowding

Leave small gaps between the sticks.
Use two batches in a small basket and serve the first immediately.

Useful accessory (Amazon affiliate link)

Silicone tongs help you move food without scratching the basket.
Silicone air fryer tongs.
