Cooking Instructions and Tips

Roast the Pepper
1

Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7. 

Halve the bell pepper lengthways and discard the core and seeds. Lay the pepper halves, cut-side down, onto a small baking tray. Drizzle with oil, then season with salt and pepper.

When the oven is hot, roast on the middle shelf until soft and slightly charred, 18-20 mins.

Eyes on the Fries
2

Meanwhile, spread the chips on a baking tray in a single layer. Drizzle with oil, season with salt and pepper, then sprinkle over the mixed herbs. Toss to coat.

Bake on the top shelf, 25-30 mins. Turn halfway through.

Pesto and Cheese Time
3

While everything roasts, halve the ciabatta. Spread each cut side evenly with the pesto.

Grate the Cheddar.

Lay your grated cheddar on the base of each ciabatta. Season well with pepper. Season well with pepper.

Build the Panini
4

Once cooked, place a roasted pepper half on top of each cheesy ciabatta base.

Sandwich shut with the ciabatta lids and firmly press all the ingredients inside. 

Get Toasting
5

Heat a drizzle of oil in a large frying pan on medium-high heat.

Once hot, add the paninis, pressing down with a spatula or heavy-bottomed pan.

Cook, pressing occasionally, until the bread is golden and toasted and the cheese has melted, 2-4 mins per side.

Finish and Serve
6

Slice your paninis diagonally, then divide between your plates with the herby chips alongside.

Share the rocket between your plates and drizzle over the balsamic glaze to finish.

Enjoy!
