  These look lovely, some of my favourite ingredients, but watch the salt as some halloumi can be seriously salty!

  I just made these burgers. They were delicious although we would have loved to find more chilli - the green thaï chillies I used were very small- and more green onion : on the picture I can see green spots in the falafels, my version is a dull beige, no green spots... Next time I will add more chilli, more green onion, mint and coriander leaves. I served the burgers with a fatoush salad, romaine lettuce, tomato, cucumber, spring onion, mint, coriander, lemon juice, olive oil and crunchy pitta breads ( grilled on the bbq along with the falafel burgers)

  I forgot to mention that brushing the burgers with olive oil didn't prevent the sticking... They made a mess and were barely presentable. But once hidden inside the pitta breads... ^^

  The burgers were delicious indeed. It was difficult to make them stick together. They came out of the pan a bit messy. I'll need to find a way to make them not fall apart. Unfortunately I could not find the halloumi cheese. I used a greek sheep/goat feta instead which turned out quite deliciously.

  Wasn't sure about this when I made it but it was great! The burgers are a bit crumbly but a little bit of oil helped with this. They taste really nice and you can really taste the halloumi :)

  I couldn't find halloumi cheese either so added cheddar and i breadcrumbed them too, as from past experience i know how messy and difficult they can be when cooking. I fried them in a couple of good glugs of olive oil too.
