Pea and halloumi fritters

I had a friend round for an impromptu drink, so I wanted to create some quick and easy fritters that were gluten-free too. I found some peas in the freezer and  some halloumi in the fridge, so I came up with this super-easy recipe!  The resulting pea and halloumi fritters were really yummy, delicate and rather filling actually!
