INGREDIENTS
For the Dough
- 500 gr. village flour
- 1 teaspoon dry yeast
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 125 ml olive oil
- 125 ml fresh orange juice
- 185 ml water
For the Filling
- 100 gr. finely chopped onion
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 400 gr. halloumi cheese, cubed
- 100 gr. fresh salted anari cheese, crumbled
- 2 tablespoons mint, finely chopped
For the Topping
- 1 beaten egg
- Sesame seeds
METHOD
- Place all the dough ingredients into the mixer bowl in the order listed. Knead until a soft dough forms. Place it in a greased bowl and let it rise for 1-2 hours until it at least doubles in volume.
- Put the onion in a pan with 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Sauté gently until golden brown. Put all the filling ingredients into a bowl and add the sautéed onion. Mix to combine.
- Divide the dough into 4 pieces. Roll each piece into a rectangle approximately 30x40 cm. Sprinkle each piece with 1/4 of the filling and roll it up into a log.
- Join the two ends of the log with a little egg. Make 6 small slits, about 1 centimeter deep, all around the 'halloumotis' (stuffed bread). Brush with egg and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
- Bake at 180°C on fan mode for 40-45 minutes.
