  1. SOFTEN THE Potato

    Preheat the oven to 200°C. Place the sliced Potato into a pot of salted water. Bring to a boil and simmer until softening, 10-12 minutes. Drain and set aside.

  2. CHAR THE Aubergine

    Place a pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the Aubergine chunks until charred but soft, 5-6 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan, drain on paper towel and season.

  3. TASTY TOMATO SAUCE

    Return the pan to medium heat with a drizzle of oil and a knob of butter. When hot, fry the sliced Onion until soft, 4-5 minutes (shifting occasionally). Add the grated garlic, the rinsed thyme, and the NOMU & chilli mix. Fry until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. Pour in the Cooked Chopped Tomato and 100ml of water. Simmer until reduced and thickening, 8-10 minutes. Remove the thyme sprigs and discard, then remove from the heat.

  4. LAYER WITH FLAVOUR

    Stir in the sliced olives, the chunks of goat’s cheese, the cooked Aubergine, and a sweetener (to taste), the Lemon Juice (to taste), and seasoning. Lay down an overlapping layer of the par-cooked sliced potatoes and then spread the mixture evenly into an ovenproof dish. Cover with a layer of the remaining Potato and bake until golden, 10-12 minutes.

  5. GOLDEN CRUMBS

    Place a pan over medium-high heat with 10g of butter and a drizzle of oil. Once melted, add the breadcrumbs and fry until lightly toasted and golden, 1-2 minutes. Remove from the pan and set aside.
