# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • The contrast between warm, crispy halloumi and cool, crunchy vegetables makes every bite exciting
  • These come together in under 30 minutes but feel like something from a trendy café
  • You can prep all the vegetables ahead and just fry the cheese when you're ready to eat
02 -
  • Halloumi releases quite a bit of liquid when cooked, so don't overcrowd the pan or it will steam instead of fry
  • The tortillas must be warm before rolling or they will crack and split
  • Don't skip the paper towels under the cooked halloumi or your wraps will become soggy
03 -
  • Pat the halloumi dry with paper towels before cooking to achieve better browning
  • If your tortillas are stiff, sprinkle them with a few drops of water before warming
  • Use a vegetable peeler to quickly create uniform carrot strips without needing special equipment
