# Schritt für Schritt:
01 - Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add halloumi cubes and fry for 2-3 minutes per side until golden. Transfer to a plate and set aside.
02 - Reduce heat to medium and add chopped onion to the same pan. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until soft and translucent.
03 - Stir in garlic, ginger, and red bell pepper. Cook for 2-3 minutes until fragrant.
04 - Add tomato paste, garam masala, cumin, coriander, turmeric, chili powder, and paprika. Cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly until aromatic.
05 - Pour in canned tomatoes and coconut milk. Stir to combine and season with salt and black pepper. Simmer for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until sauce thickens.
06 - Return fried halloumi to the pan. Gently simmer for 5 minutes, allowing the cheese to absorb the curry flavors.
07 - Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Garnish with fresh cilantro and serve with lemon wedges alongside steamed basmati rice or warm naan bread.
