- 2 slices rye bread
- 2 slices halloumi cheese, approximately 1/2 inch thick
- 1 tbsp olive oil, approximately
- 2 slices tomato
- 1 - 2 pieces iceberg lettuce
Place your rye bread slices in a toaster or toaster oven and toast until done to your liking.
Pat your halloumi dry with paper towels. Set aside.
Brush a non-stick skillet with olive oil and set over medium heat. Add your halloumi cheese and cook for approximately 1 - 2 minutes per side until golden brown and crispy.
When your cheese is ready, assemble your sandwich. Brush or drizzle each slice of rye bread with olive oil. Layer the halloumi, tomato slices and lettuce.
Cut your sandwich in half if you like, serve and enjoy!
We love serving this sandwich with rye bread, but any bread can do.
This sandwich is best served immediately.
