Ingredients:

  • 225 g halloumi sliced into thin fries, around 1cm each
  • 40 g plain flour
  • 1 tbsp mayonnaise/0.5tbsp oil
  • ~60ml cold water
  • 50 g panko bread crumbs
  • 0.5 tsp 5 spice
  • 0.25 tsp caster sugar
  • 0.25 tsp white pepper
  • Pinch of salt
  • Flavourless oil to grease your oven tray (sunflower/vegetable/rapeseed etc)

Bang bang sauce:

  • 2 tbsp vegan mayo
  • 0.5 tbsp lime juice
  • 0.5 tbsp sriracha
  • 0.5 tbsp honey/vegan alternative

Garnish:

  • Toasted sesame
  • Spring onions
  • Nori

Instructions
 

Method:

  • Preheat oven to 200'C/220'C conventional
  • Mix your flour, mayo, and water in one bowl and whisk until lump free
  • In a separate bowl mix your panko, 5 spice, sugar, white pepper, and salt. Caster sugar is more finely ground and distributes more evenly within the coating
  • Dip each halloumi piece into the flour mix, do this carefully to avoid any breakages, then dip into your breadcrumbs and coat evenly
  • Place on an oiled oven tray, and bake for 20 minutes, turning the fries over half way. If there's any areas not turning golden, brush them lightly with your oil of choice
  • Mix up your bang bang sauce ingredients, this will be shiny and vibrant!
  • Layer up your fries, drizzle on your sauce, top with some toasted sesame, spring onions, and go grab that nori!
