Halloumi burgers added to Burger King menus in the UK

In a salad, battered with a sweet chili dip, or simply on its own, halloumi has quickly become one of the nation's favourite cheeses. 

And now the popular Cypriot cheese is making its way onto fast food menus.  

Burger King has launched halloumi burgers across the UK after a successful trial in Sweden.  

The new BK burger features the cheese in a crispy coating, served with mayonnaise, lettuce, onions and tomatoes in a brioche bun, DevonLive reports.  

And if you can't get enough halloumi - the burger also comes in a double. 

It is the first halloumi burger to be served at a major UK fast-food chain.

A Burger King spokesman said: “This new addition to the menu will bolster Burger King’s meat-free alternatives.

“[It will] sit alongside Burger King’s iconic offerings, such as the flame-grilled Whopper, as either an alternative or an accompaniment." 

Setting you back £3.99 for a single burger (£5.99 as a meal), or £5.49 for the double (and £7.49 as a meal), the halloumi burger launches in Burger King stores nationwide from today (July 8).
