🧀 Air-Fried Crispy Halloumi Fries with Honey-Harissa Drizzle 🍯
An absolute masterclass in Mediterranean flavor and texture engineering. Halloumi is a unique cheese with a high melting point, making it perfect for the air fryer. By dusting dense halloumi batons in a light, spiced flour coating and hitting them with maximum convection heat, the outside rapidly develops a golden, protective crust. The interior softens into a warm, wonderfully squeaky, rich cheese core that pairs perfectly with a spicy-sweet glaze.
