Morrisons is selling beer battered halloumi – and we can’t wait to try it

The veggie alternative sees wedges of Cypriot cheese coated in crisp batter made with black sheep ale.
They're best cooked in the oven from chilled and take about 14 minutes before they're ready.
The 220g packs have four halloumi slices each, with one containing 185 calories.
They cost , although if you get your hands on them before June 1 next year, then you'll be able to pick up three of them for £6.
That means you could save £1.50 in the deal but you will also be limited to buying 20 packets of them per customer.
Here's how to cut the cost of your grocery shop
SAVING on your shop can make a big difference to your wallet. Here are some tips from Hannah Maundrell, editor of Money.co.uk, about how you can cut the cost of your shopping bills:
- Write yourself a list – Only buy items that you need. If it isn’t on your list, don’t put it in the trolley
- Create a budget – Work out a weekly budget for your food shopping
- Never shop hungry – you are far more likely to buy more food if your tummy is rumbling
- Don’t buy pre-chopped veggies or fruit – The extra they’ll charge for chopping can be eye watering
- Use social media – follow your favourite retailers to find out about the latest deals
- Be disloyal – You may want to go to different stores to find the best bargains
- Check the small print – It’s always worth checking the price per kg/lb/litre when comparing offers so you’re making a like for like decision as a bigger box won’t necessarily mean you get more
- Use your loyalty cards – Don’t be afraid to sign up to them all. They all work slightly differently – work out what bonus suits you better and remember to trade in your points for additional rewards
This is to stop customers stocking on the food and flogging them on for an inflated prices.
Besides, the food isn't safe to freeze but should last four days fresh including the delivery date.
They're new to the range but you can already order them online and pick them up in stores.
It looks like Morrisons is the only supermarket selling this kind of halloumi snack, but you can buy halloumi fries from Aldi for £1.99.
