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.
