Its not been something I've looked for to be honest.... but in the larger places like Orphanides up in Paralimni I'd say yes... they stock just about everything you get at home...

but if they like cheese you can't beat Halloumi Cheese on the BBQ/Grill/Griddle ! (have a look at my recipe for a Halloumi Kebab Sandwich )

Is Halloumi cheese vegetarian ?

Halloumi cheese that I buy (which is just the one available in the supermarket, and isn't a special find in anyway) is suitable for vegetarians ! - I've just taken a picture so you can see the bottom left of the picture the green leaf saying suitable for etc.. halloumi is suitable for vegetarians it also says made from non-animal rennet !

:cheers

Thanks Steve

I'm not a strict veggie so I occasionally eat normal cheese(veggie cheese is almost impossible to buy in Germany) but a friend is practically vegan and your recipe for the sandwiches looks like something we would both enjoy. I'll check it out, if I can't find the cheese here I'll bring some back from the UK next time I'm over there.

Halloumi,or Hellim cheese, is the national cheese of cyprus [although it is made in other EU countries] I have seen it on sale from time to time in Lidle stores and tesco when they are doing their taste of range

Hi
Thanks for the info on the supermarkets - I am sure if we can get what we want we will get it there.
Will take a bus into Paphos, get all we want and a taxi back.
Thanks also for the lovely recipe - one to try.
