Name: Crispy Saganaki with Warm Honey, Thyme & Sesame
Prep time: 8 min
Cook time: 10 min
Total time: 18 min
Yield: 2 servings
Ingredients: 250g halloumi cheese, sliced into 8 thick sticks (about 1.5 cm each); 100g all-purpose flour; 2 large eggs, beaten lightly; 80g panko breadcrumbs; 4 tbsp olive oil for frying; 4 tbsp raw honey; 2 sprigs fresh thyme (or ½ tsp dried); 2 tbsp white sesame seeds; Sea salt & cracked pepper to taste; Lemon wedge for serving

Thick strips of halloumi are dredged in flour, dipped in egg, then panfried until they puff and turn golden. Served immediately on a warm plate with a generous drizzle of warm thyme-infused honey and a shower of toasted sesame seeds—the cheese stays molten inside while the crust shatters with every bite.
