Ketogenic Crunchy Halloumi Cheese Fries

What better fries are there then ones made entirely of cheese! Our Ketogenic Crunchy Haloumi Cheese Fries are so delicious, crunchy on the outside and soft in the center.

When cooking with tallow or lard, it very important to use a splatter guard. The fat spits and can burn you as well as coating your kitchen.

This recipe makes 4 serves.

Ingredients for Making Your Ketogenic Crunchy Haloumi Cheese Fries:

• 8 ounces of Haloumi Cheese
• 2 ounces of Tallow
• 1 serve of Low Carb Marinara Sauce

Instructions for Making Your Ketogenic Crunchy Halloumi Cheese Fries:

1. Slice the halloumi into fries at least 7mm/0.3in thick and sit on paper towel to dry.
2. Place the tallow into a large non-stick frying pan and place over medium to high heat. You want the tallow to be around 170C/340F.
3. Gently add the halloumi pieces, I suggest using a pair of tongs as the tallow will spit hot fat.
4. Once all the haloumi is added, cover the pan with a splatter guard.
5. Cook the halloumi for about 2 minutes on each side, until golden brown and crunchy.
6. Serve with a side of Low Carb Marinara Sauce for dipping.
