re: haloumi cheese

Yea, used olive oil.

You need to get the oil real hot, cut slices of cheese not to thick but not too thin. I threw some minced garlic in and fried on each side about 1-2 mins until the golden brown color is achieved.

The first time I cooked it, I barely sprinkled any garlic powder on it, and I thought I over did it. Last few times I've cooked it w/o garlic powder and it has came out very tasty.
