Prosciutto Wrapped Halloumi

I know that this keto recipe says it serves two, but I totally won’t judge you if you eat the lot.

Crisp Parma ham contrasts perfectly with the soft, salty halloumi to create the perfect treat. Instead of parma ham you can even use thin cut bacon or pancetta.

Eat these as a snack, with a dipping sauce — try our low-carb marinara sauce or easy homemade ketchup — and they would be perfect to make a big batch for watching a game or to take to a party.

You can serve these for dinner with a simple side salad such as Berry Side Salad, Zucchini & Mint Salad, Cucumber Radish Salad or Greek Salad. Enjoy!

Step-by-step

1. Preheat your oven to 220 °C/ 430 °F (fan assisted), or 240 °C/ 465 °F (conventional) and line a large baking tray.

2. Cut the halloumi into 8 sticks and the Parma ham slices in half longways. Wrap each stick in a slice of Parma ham.

3. Place on the oven tray, seam side facing down. Bake for 10 to 15 minutes, turning halfway through.

   

4. Remove from the oven and serve while still. Optionally, dip in some low-carb Ketchup or BBQ Sauce.

   

5. Store, in a covered container, in the fridge for up to 3 days and reheat before serving.
