Halloumi Burgers
Servings: 4
Ingredients
- 4 rolls of choice (Ciabatta and Turkish Rolls work particularly well)
- 250 g halloumi
- 50 g rocket
- 4 large Portobello or flat mushrooms (Note 1)
- aioli
- whole grain mustard
- 40 g parmesan (shaved)
- olive oil (for frying)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 180℃.
- Slice the rolls in half, arranging them on a lined tray, cut side up. Toast them briefly.
- On a medium heat, drizzle a large frying pan with olive oil, and grill mushrooms until cooked.
- Cut your halloumi into 1-1.5cm slices, and pat each piece dry.
- In the same pan you cooked the mushrooms, add more olive oil, then cook your halloumi on both sides until golden brown.
- To compile the burgers, spread a generous layer of aioli and mustard (or sauces of your choice) on each side of the toasted roll.
- Add the mushrooms and halloumi.
- Top with the rocket and shaved parmesan.
- Enjoy immediately as is, or with a side of sweet potato fries.
Notes
- Mushrooms tend to shrink significantly during the cooking process. Depending on the size of your rolls and the mushrooms, you may want to use two mushrooms per roll.
