Homemade Vegan Halloumi - Dairy-Free Cheese Recipe

Step 1

Boil cashews. Add cashews to a medium pan. Add boiling hot water. Boil for 15 minutes to soften. Drain well to remove any excess liquid.

Step 2

Add ingredients. Add boiled cashews and the remaining ingredients to a blender or food processor.

Step 3

Blend. Blend on high speed until completely smooth (2-3 minutes).

Step 4

Heat up. Transfer the mixture to a nonstick pan. Heat on medium heat while stirring continuously.

Step 5

Thicken. The mixture will start thickening; by the end, it should not be liquidy (this will take 5-10 minutes).

Step 6

Set. Transfer the thickened mixture to a shallow dish. Let it cool slightly, then set it in the fridge to thicken for about 3 hours.

Step 7

Slice. Slice it into 6 equal slices.

Step 8

Fry and serve. Gently fry on a lightly oiled pan for 5 minutes on each side until hot and slightly crispy.
