Ingredients

  • 250g halloumi cheese sliced
  • 8 small corn tortillas
  • 2 tbsp harissa paste
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • 1/2 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1 lime juiced
  • 1/2 cup shredded red cabbage
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro chopped
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 2 tbsp olive oil

Instructions

1
First, whisk the harissa, honey, and olive oil in a small bowl to create a spicy-sweet marinade.
2
Pat the halloumi slices dry and sear them in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat until golden brown on both sides.
3
Pour the harissa mixture over the cheese in the pan, tossing gently until the glaze caramelizes and coats every piece.
4
In a separate bowl, stir the Greek yogurt, lime juice, and cumin together until smooth to create the crema.
5
Lightly char the corn tortillas over an open flame or in a dry pan.
6
To assemble, layer the shredded cabbage on each tortilla, top with two slices of glazed halloumi, and finish with a generous drizzle of the cilantro-lime crema and a sprinkle of fresh cilantro.
