Method

Before you start

Brown the peppers before the halloumi goes in; crowding everything together stops the cheese taking on colour.

  1. Prep the Vegetables

    • Halve the red pepper and yellow pepper, remove the cores and seeds, then slice into thin strips. Halve, peel and thinly slice the red onion.
  2. Soften the Peppers

    • Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the peppers and red onion with 1 tsp paprika and black pepper.
    • Cook for 8–10 mins, stirring regularly, until soft with browned edges. Transfer to a plate.
  3. Brown the Halloumi

    • Drain the halloumi, pat it dry and cut into 1cm-thick strips. Dust with another 1 tsp paprika.
    • Return the pan to medium-high heat and fry the halloumi for 2–3 mins on each side until golden.
  4. Make It Sticky

    • Return the peppers and onion to the pan. Add 3 tbsp sweet chilli sauce and toss for 30–60 secs until everything is glossy; take the pan off the heat before the sauce catches.
  5. Warm and Fill

    • Warm the mini tortillas for 20–30 secs per side in the clean dry pan and stack them beneath a clean tea towel.
    • Fill with the sticky peppers and halloumi, then drizzle the remaining 2 tbsp sweet chilli sauce over the adult tacos.
