G'day Curd Nerds. Welcome to the 11th Curd Nerd newsletter.
|
This week's free video tutorial about Halloumi fries is more on the foodie side of things rather than cheese-making itself. With some of the leftover Chilli Halloumi I had in the fridge, I decided to check out what the new fad of Halloumi fries was all about.
|
Normally, Halloumi is lightly pan-fried so that it slightly caramelises to fully bring out the flavour of the cheese. It is a non-melting cheese, so there is no issue with the cheese losing its shape.
|
So to lightly coat the cheese with milk and a seasoned flour mixture and cook until golden brown was easy to prepare. However, just because it was simple to make didn't mean it wasn't delicious! Can I just say that when I ate my first Halloumi frie dipped in Greek yoghurt, it was blooming amazing!
|
Now, of course, you just have to make the Halloumi yourself to get full satisfaction from the experience, but with that said, store-bought Halloumi would be just as nice. Perfect to serve as a side dish as a substitute for regular fries or hot chips.
|
If you really want to make Halloumi yourself, I have a special offer for you this week for the Fresh cheese kit. Don't forget to have a gander.
|
Remember that each week during the Ask the Cheeseman livestream on Sunday mornings at 0800 Australian Eastern Time on my YouTube channel, you can ask any home cheese-making question and I attempt to answer it live. See you there for a chat!

Here is a sneak peek at a frame from next week's video tutorial. I managed to get my hands on some water buffalo milk, so decided it was high time to make Mozzarella di Bufala. I am so excited, hope it turns out okay! More next week.
