Roasted potatoes are often left to the side of a dish, but we’ve given them a starring role tonight. With their herby and golden coating, they work perfectly in these haloumi tacos to deliver loads of flavour.

Cooking Steps

Get prepped
1

Preheat the oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced. Cut the potato (unpeeled) into 1cm chunks. Place the potato and 1/2 the dried oregano on an oven tray lined with baking paper. Drizzle with olive oil, season with salt and pepper and toss to coat. Roast until tender, 20-25 minutes.

Caramelise the onions
2

While the potato is roasting, thinly slice the red onion. Finely chop the garlic. Slice the cucumber into thin batons. Slice the tomato into thin halfmoons. Shred the cos lettuce. Cut the haloumi into 1cm-thick slices. Place the haloumi slices in a small bowl of cold water and set aside to soak for 5 minutes.

TIP: Soaking the haloumi helps mellow out the saltiness!

Flavour the haloumi
3

In a medium frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over a medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring often, until softened, 5-6 minutes. Add the balsamic vinegar, water and brown sugar and stir to combine. Cook until dark and sticky, 3-5 minutes. Transfer to a small bowl.

Make the lemon aioli
4

While the onion is caramelising, combine the garlic, the remaining dried oregano, a pinch of pepper and a drizzle of olive oil in a medium bowl. Drain the haloumi, then pat dry with paper towel. Add to the bowl with the garlic mixture. Toss the haloumi to coat.

Cook the haloumi
5

Wash the frying pan and return to a medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. When the oil is hot, add the haloumi and cook until golden brown, 2 minutes each side. While the haloumi is cooking, heat the mini flour tortillas in a sandwich press, or on a plate in the microwave for 10 second bursts, until warmed through.

Serve up
6

Bring everything to the table to serve. Spread some garlic aioli on each tortilla, then fill with some cos lettuce, roasted potato, cucumber, tomato, caramelised onion and haloumi.
