Cut and soak the halloumi

• Cut the halloumi along the line in the block, then halve again so you get thick pieces.
• Soak the pieces in hot water for 10 minutes.

Drain and dry

• Drain the halloumi and pat it really dry, otherwise it will splutter in the pan.

Fry the halloumi

• Heat the vegetable oil in a pan and fry the halloumi until golden on both sides.

Add the glaze

• Turn the heat down and add the lemon juice, honey and chilli flakes.
• Let it bubble for a minute until the sauce coats the halloumi.

Finish and serve

• Scatter over the fresh thyme and serve warm.
