Vegetarianism and Global Cuisine

Halloumi is deeply ingrained in Cypriot culture and identity, and is considered a national treasure. The Halloumi Burger, while a modern invention, promotes Cypriot cuisine and ingredients on an international stage, solidifying its place in the global culinary landscape.
Funzionalità Premium
The Halloumi Burger offers a delightful combination of salty, savory, and fresh flavors, contrasted by textures ranging from chewy and crisp to juicy and soft.
The dominant flavor comes from the halloumi, a semi-hard, brined cheese that is known for its high melting point and ability to be grilled or fried without losing its shape. Grilling or frying creates a delicious crispy exterior while maintaining a slightly chewy interior. The lettuce, tomato, and onion provide freshness and a juicy crunch, offering a counterpoint to the richness of the cheese. The signature dressing, which could vary widely depending on the restaurant or chef, adds a creamy, tangy, or spicy element that ties all the flavors together.
Funzionalità Premium
Halloumi Selection
Choose high-quality halloumi that is firm and has a good brined flavor. Avoid halloumi that is overly salty or has a rubbery texture.
Grilling Technique
Ensure the grill is hot enough to achieve a good sear on the halloumi without it sticking. Lightly oil the grill grates and the halloumi before grilling. Grill for 2-3 minutes per side, until golden brown and slightly softened.
Dressing Choice
Select a dressing that complements the flavors of the halloumi and vegetables. Options like a lemon-herb aioli, a spicy harissa mayo, or a simple balsamic glaze can work well.
Bun Selection
Choose a bun that is sturdy enough to hold the ingredients without falling apart. Brioche buns, ciabatta rolls, or even toasted pita bread can be excellent choices.
