    • sugar, to taste
    • salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
    • 200 – 300g haloumi, cubed

    Instructions

    1

    Preheat the oven to 100°C. Line a baking tray with baking paper.

    2

    Place the halved strawberries, cut-side up, on the baking tray. Sprinkle a little sugar on top of each strawberry and season lightly. Place in the oven and allow to dry for 3 hours. Allow to cool completely.

    Heat a non-stick pan and fry the haloumi until golden on all sides. Keep an eye on the haloumi as it fries and melts very quickly.
