PICKLED Onion
In a bowl, combine the vinegar, 5ml of sweetener, and seasoning. Toss through the sliced Onion and set aside to pickle. Drain right before serving.
BUTTERY ROLL
Halve the ciabatta roll, and spread butter or oil over the cut-side. Place a pan over medium heat. When hot, toast the bun, cut-side down, until golden, 1-2 minutes.
CRUMBED Aubergine
Whisk 1 egg in a shallow dish with a tsp of water and the grated Garlic. Prepare two more shallow dishes: one containing the flour (lightly seasoned) and the other containing the chilli crumb. Coat the Aubergine slices in the seasoned flour first, then in the egg, and lastly lightly coat with the chilli crumb. Return the pan to medium-high heat with enough oil to cover the base. When hot, fry the crumbed aubergine until golden and cooked through, 2-3 minutes per side. You will need to do this step in batches. Remove from the pan, drain on paper towel, and season.
HARISSA Mayo & SALAD
In a bowl, combine the harissa paste and the Mayo. Loosen with a splash of water. In a salad bowl, toss together ¾ of the shredded salad leaves, the Cucumber half-moons, ½ the pickled onions, the drained feta, the chopped olives, a drizzle of olive oil, and seasoning.
SARMIES TO THE RESCUE!
Spread the toasted ciabatta roll with the harissa Mayo. Fill with the remaining salad leaves, the crumbed Aubergine, and the remaining pickled onions. Season and close up! Serve the salad on the side.
