• You can add some crushed red pepper flakes for a spicy kick.
• If you don't have haloumi cheese, you can substitute it with feta or goat cheese.

Storage and Serving

• This dish is best served immediately while the spaghetti is still hot and the haloumi is crispy.
• Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
• To reheat, simply heat the spaghetti in a pan over low heat until warmed through.
