Ingredients

  • 3 bell peppers (I used yellow, orange and red), sliced
  • 1 red onion, sliced
  • 1 Tbsp oil
  • 2 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1 tsp chilli powder
  • 1/2 tsp ground cumin
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 225 g (~ 8 oz) halloumi cheese, cut into sticks
  • 4 flour tortillas (I used mini ones, but large tortillas would also work)
  • Your choice of toppings, e.g. salsa, avocado, iceberg lettuce, sour cream, guacamole, etc.

Instructions

  • Add the sliced peppers, sliced onion, oil, and spices to a mixing bowl. Mix well.
  • Transfer the mixture to the air fryer basket, and cook at 180°C (350°F) for 15 minutes, until the vegetables are soft and just beginning to crisp up.
  • Give the vegetables a quick stir, then place the sticks of halloumi cheese on top. Return to the air fryer for a further 10 minutes.
  • When the halloumi cheese is golden brown and crispy on top, mix it into the vegetables. Then serve the mixture in flour tortillas, with your choice of toppings.

Notes

Feel free to add extra vegetables to your fajitas, e.g. slices of mushroom or eggplant (though if you add a lot of additional ingredients, you'll need to use a large air fryer). My air fryer has a capacity of 4.3 litres.
