Ingredients

2 tablespoons chopped, seeded fresh red chile (about 2 medium chiles)
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
18 ounces halloumi, sliced medium-thin (i.e. just under 1/4-inch)
1/4 lemon, juiced

Directions

1

Mix the chopped chile and olive oil in a small bowl or cup and leave the flavors to deepen while you cook the cheese.
2

I use a nonstick frying pan for this, without any oil, and just give the cheese slices about 2 minutes a side until they're golden brown in parts.
3

When all the slices of halloumi are cooked, transfer them to a couple of small plates.
4

Give the chile oil a stir, spoon it over the cheese, then give a spritz of lemon.
5

That's all there is to it.
