Make perfectly crispy halloumi fries in your air fryer without deep frying. This recipe includes a simple coating and a bright yogurt dipping sauce.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 oz halloumi cheese
  • 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil spray
  • For the Dip: 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon fresh dill, chopped
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Cut the halloumi block lengthwise into sticks about 1/2 inch thick. Pat the sticks very dry using paper towels.
  2. In a shallow dish, mix the flour, paprika, and black pepper.
  3. Lightly dredge each halloumi stick in the flour mixture, shaking off any excess.
  4. Lightly spray the air fryer basket with olive oil spray. Arrange the halloumi sticks in a single layer, ensuring they do not touch.
  5. Air fry at 380°F (195°C) for 8 to 10 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crispy.
  6. While the halloumi cooks, prepare the dip: Mix the Greek yogurt, lemon juice, dill, and salt in a small bowl.
  7. Serve the hot halloumi fries immediately with the lemon-herb yogurt dip.

Notes

  • For best results and maximum crispiness, do not overcrowd the air fryer basket. Cook in batches if necessary.
  • If your air fryer tends to stick, lightly spray the basket bottom before placing the cheese down.
  • Ensure the halloumi is completely dry before coating; moisture prevents crisping.
