Total time: 24 min
Yield: 2 servings
Ingredients: 8 oz halloumi cheese, cut into 1/2-inch thick discs; 1/2 cup chickpea flour; 2 tbsp cornstarch; 1/2 tsp sumac; 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper; Oil for deep frying (neutral, about 2 cups); 1/4 cup pomegranate molasses; 2 tbsp tamarind paste; 3 tbsp honey; 1/4 cup roasted pistachios, crushed; 8 fresh sage leaves; Sea salt; Lemon wedge for serving

Blocks of squeaky Turkish halloumi are dredged in crispy chickpea flour coating, fried until they develop a burnished golden crust while the interior stays warm and slightly molten. Plated on a pomegranate-tamarind reduction that's simultaneously sweet, sour and slightly savory, topped with crushed roasted pistachios and fried sage for textural contrast.
