SEAR THE SCHNITZEL
Boil the kettle. Place a pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. Pat the schnitzel dry with paper towel. When hot, sear the schnitzel until browned, 30-60 seconds per side. Remove from the pan, season, and thinly slice.
TOMATO & VEG SAUCE
Place a pot over medium heat with a drizzle of oil and a knob of butter. When hot, fry the sliced onion and peppers until soft, 4-5 minutes. Add the spicy rub and the grated garlic, and fry until fragrant, 1-2 minutes (shifting constantly). Pour in the tomato passata, the vegetable stock, and 150ml of water. Simmer until the sauce has reduced, 12-15 minutes. Remove from the heat, mix through a sweetener (to taste), the crème fraîche, the beef slices, and seasoning. Sprinkle over the grated cheese and cover until melted.
GOLDEN CIABATTA
Slice the ciabatta square into 2-3cm thin slices. Spread butter (optional) or oil over the slices. Place a pan over medium heat. When hot, toast the ciabatta slices until golden, 1-2 minutes per side.
