Instructions

Taco Filling

In a large skillet, heat about 2 teaspoons of the olive oil over medium heat. When the oil shimmers, add the onion and cook, stirring often, until soft, about 5-7 minutes. Stir in the cauliflower and poblano peppers and cook until the cauliflower start to brown, 10-15 minutes more. Add the garlic and jalapeño and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute more. Add soy sauce and cook, stirring, until the soy sauce coats the vegetables, about 2 minutes more. Remove the skillet from the heat and stir in the chopped cilantro.

If making homemade tortillas, start them now.

In a small skillet, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. When the oil shimmers, add the halloumi and cook without moving it until golden, about 2 minutes per side, 4 to 5 minutes total. Stir in the sesame seeds, then remove from skillet and cut into cubes.

Sauce

In a blender or food processor, combine the yogurt, cilantro, jalapeño, lime juice, and a large pinch of salt. Pulse until completely smooth, about 1 minute. Taste and add more salt as needed.

Add filling to the tortillas and top with halloumi, avocado, and yogurt sauce.
