Cut the halloumi cheese into slices approximately half an inch thick
Set up three shallow bowls with flour in the first, beaten eggs in the second, and breadcrumbs mixed with dried oregano in the third
Coat each halloumi slice in flour, shaking off excess, then dip in beaten egg, and finally coat thoroughly with the breadcrumb mixture
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until it shimmers
Carefully place breaded halloumi slices into the hot oil, frying for about 1-2 minutes per side until golden brown and crispy
Remove fried halloumi with a slotted spatula and place on a paper towel to drain excess oil
Serve immediately while hot, garnished with fresh lemon wedges and optional fresh mint leaves
