Tonight’s gathering — and every one after — can be elevated with Olyana Grilling Halloumi, thanks to its firm texture that doesn’t melt on the grill and its perfectly balanced salty flavor that pairs beautifully with countless additions.
First: The Perfect Appetizer
1. Fried or Grilled Halloumi Sticks:
Cut the cheese into thick fingers, coat them lightly with olive oil, paprika, and Italian herbs, then fry or grill until golden and crisp.
Serve with one of these delicious dipping sauces:
- Fresh basil pesto.
- Yogurt-mint-garlic dip.
- Spicy tomato sauce.
2. Grilled Halloumi Skewers:
Thread cubes of Olyana Halloumi alternately with colorful veggies such as bell peppers, zucchini, red onions, and cherry tomatoes.
Brush with olive oil and sprinkle with thyme for that authentic Mediterranean touch.
Second: Innovative Side Dishes
1. Halloumi with Honey and Nuts:
After grilling the cheese slices, drizzle with honey or maple syrup and top with chopped walnuts.
The combination of salty and sweet creates a flavor contrast you’ll never forget.
2. Halloumi with Pesto and Sun-Dried Tomatoes:
Grill the slices, spread a layer of pesto on top, and add sun-dried tomatoes.
You can also place them in a small clay pot with olive oil and herbs for extra crispness and aroma.
Third: In Sandwiches and Salads

Layer grilled Olyana Halloumi slices with barbecue and ketchup sauce, fresh lettuce, arugula, and tomato inside a warm croissant — a creative and satisfying snack.
