Slice the halloumi cheese into 1 cm thick strips, resembling fries. Set aside.
In a bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, paprika, garlic powder, black pepper, and salt. Mix well.
Roll each halloumi strip in the flour mixture until evenly coated on all sides.
Heat the vegetable oil in a deep pan over medium-high heat to approximately 180°C (350°F).
Carefully add the halloumi strips to the hot oil in batches. Do not overcrowd the pan.
Fry the halloumi until golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per side. Use a slotted spoon to remove them from the oil and drain on paper towels.
Once all halloumi fries are cooked, transfer them to a serving plate.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley.
Serve immediately with lemon wedges for squeezing over the top before eating.
