Cooking Steps
a) Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7. Boil a full kettle.
b) Trim the aubergine, then slice into rounds approximately 1cm thick.
c) Place the aubergine onto a baking tray. Drizzle with oil, sprinkle over the roasted spice and herb blend and season. Toss to coat. Spread out in a single layer.
d) When the oven is hot, roast the aubergine on the top shelf until soft and golden, 20-25 mins. Turn halfway through cooking.
a) Meanwhile, quarter the salad potatoes (no need to peel).
b) Pour the boiled water into a medium saucepan with ½ tsp salt and bring back to the boil on high heat.
c) Once boiling, add the potatoes, reduce the heat and simmer until just tender, 12-15 mins.
a) Cut the lemon into wedges.
b) Halve, peel and thinly slice the shallot.
c) In a small bowl, mix the shallot with a good squeeze of lemon juice, sugar for the pickle (see pantry for amount) and a pinch of salt. Set aside.
a) In another small bowl, combine the green chilli paste and mayo. Set aside.
b) Halve the ciabatta.
a) In a large bowl, combine the dried mint, sugar and olive oil for the dressing (see pantry for both amounts) and a squeeze of lemon juice.
b) Season with salt and pepper, then set your dressing aside.
c) Once the potatoes are cooked, drain in a colander and allow to cool for a few mins. Add to the dressing bowl along with half the pickled shallot. Toss together.
d) Just before everything's ready, pop the ciabatta into the oven to warm through, 2-3 mins.
a) Once the aubergine is ready, drizzle over the honey (see pantry for amount). Turn to coat.
b) Transfer the ciabatta to your plates. Spread the smashed avocado over the ciabatta bases, top with the aubergine, the remaining pickled shallot and a handful of rocket.
c) Spread the chilli mayo over the ciabatta lids and sandwich shut.
d) Serve the salata batata and remaining rocket on the side. Drizzle a little oil over the leaves to finish.
