Halloumi is a firm, semi-hard cheese originally from Cyprus, made from a blend of sheep and goat milk. One metric cup (250 ml) of grated or crumbled halloumi weighs around 120 grams or 4.23 ounces. When a recipe calls for halloumi by volume, measuring by grams gives a more consistent result than filling a cup.

Halloumi is usually sold by weight and sliced or diced for grilling and frying. Converting grams to cups helps when a recipe specifies volume, or when you need to work out how much cheese to buy for a given volume measure.

Related Halloumi Ingredients

Mozzarella is soft and melts readily, while halloumi is firm and holds its shape under heat. Both are mild cheeses but they behave very differently in cooking. See mozzarella in US cups.

Feta is crumbly and salty like halloumi, but it crumbles rather than holds its shape when cooked. Halloumi is the better choice when you need a cheese that can be grilled or pan-fried without melting. See feta in US cups.

Paneer is another firm, non-melting cheese, milder and unsalted, and much heavier per cup (226 g vs 120 g). Swap by weight when you want a cheese that fries and grills without squeaking. See paneer in US cups.
