Equipment

  • Large non-stick pan
  • Cheese grater
  • Cutting board

Ingredients
  

  • 225 g halloumi grated
  • 100 g baby tomatoes diced
  • 1 red onion finely diced
  • ½ tablespoon chipotle paste
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 2 avocados
  • 8 mini tortillas
  • 1 tablespoon hot water
  • 4 tablespoon sour cream

Instructions
 

  • Start by preparing your ingredients by dicing the baby tomatoes and red onion. Grate the halloumi using a cheese grater.

  • Heat a non-stick pan over high heat. Add the grated halloumi to the pan. At first, it will seem like the cheese is melting, but give it a few minutes to start crisping up. Stir occasionally, allowing the halloumi to become golden brown and slightly crispy on the edges.
  • Once the halloumi has turned a gorgeous golden brown, stir in the chipotle paste, hot water, and honey. This combination will coat the halloumi, giving it a spicy-sweet glaze that’s packed with flavor. Stir everything well until the halloumi is evenly coated, then turn off the heat.

  • Toast the mini tortillas lightly in a dry pan or over an open flame until they are warm and slightly crisp. On each tortilla, smash a quarter of an avocado, then layer on a scoop of the honey chipotle halloumi mixture. Top with diced tomatoes, red onion, and a dollop of sour cream.
    2 avocados, 8 mini tortillas, 4 tablespoon sour cream

Notes

Ensure the halloumi crisps by using a non-stick pan and high heat. Let it brown before stirring, which locks in flavor and texture. This adds a satisfying crunch to the tacos.
