Recipe
This crispy eggplant and burrata sandwich combines crunchy textures, and creamy indulgence, all layered in a hearty sandwich.
A perfect Summer recipe for lunchtime in a coffee shop.
Preparation : 20-25 min
Roast whole red peppers until skin blisters, peel off the skin, slice into strips, and marinate in olive oil.
Take two slices of eggplant, season lightly with salt and let them rest 10 minutes to draw out excess moisture, then pat dry.
Bread the eggplant, by dredging each slice in flour, so dip into beaten egg, and coat with breadcrumbs.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and fry the breaded eggplant slices until golden brown on both sides. Drain on paper towels.
Slice the bread, previously baked in half. Layer the crispy eggplant slices, add the burrata (torn into pieces),then the marinated roasted peppers, top with rocket salad and drizzle with vinaigrette.
Close the sandwich and serve while the eggplant is still warm and crunchy.
