Halloumi Measurement Converter

Need halloumi in tablespoons? Here's the quick answer: 1 cup of halloumi is 12.5 tablespoons. 2 cups of halloumi is 25 tablespoons. Use the converter below for any amount.

  • These figures use the metric cup (250 ml). A US cup is slightly smaller at 240 ml, so it holds a little less. Use the US cup converter
  • A tablespoon here is the 20 ml metric (Australian) spoon, 12.5 to a cup. A US or UK tablespoon is smaller at 15 ml, so it holds about a quarter less.

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.

  • grilling cheese
  • halloumi cheese
  • squeaky cheese

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 our Mozzarella converter.

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 our Feta converter.
