Step 1
Put the grated carrot and halloumi, along with the remaining ingredients, except the oil and salad, into a mixing bowl and season well with black pepper and just a little salt.

Step 2
Work the mixture with your hands to combine it well, then take roughly 1 tbsp of the mixture and roll it into a ball. Repeat with the remaining mixture.

Step 3
Fill a pan no more than 1/3 full with oil and heat to 180C or until a cube of bread browns in 30 seconds. Line a plate with a double layer of kitchen paper.
