Halloumi schnitzel

For the halloumi

1 halloumi 2 tbsp flour 1 egg 4 tbsp breadcrumbs 4 tbsp olive oil salt pepper

For the sauce

2 tbsp olive oil 1 garlic clove 200 g grated tomato 1 tsp capers 1 tsp fresh thyme a few drops of liquid basil (optional) salt pepper

Cut the halloumi in half and boil it in hot water for 10 minutes until softened. Place each piece between two sheets of kitchen paper and roll it with a rolling pin until thinner and even.

Coat the halloumi in flour, then in beaten egg, and finally in breadcrumbs. Heat the olive oil and fry until golden and crispy on both sides.

For the sauce, heat the olive oil, add the garlic for a few seconds, then add the grated tomato, capers, thyme, salt and pepper. Simmer until lightly thickened. If you want, add a few drops of liquid basil.

Place the schnitzel on top of the warm sauce and serve immediately.
