Cooking instructions
Instructions for 2 [for 3] [for 4] portion recipe.
Preheat the oven to 200°C/ 180°C (fan)/ gas 6
Combine your soy sauce with your ground smoked paprika, 1 tbsp [1 1/2 tbsp] [2 tbsp] vegetable oil and a grind of black pepper in a large bowl – this is your 'bacon' flavouring
Trim the stalk[s] off your aubergine[s] and cut in half lengthways
Slice each half, lengthways, as finely as you can (approx. 0.5cm in thickness)

Add the aubergine slices to the 'bacon' flavouring and give everything a good mix up until the aubergine is fully coated (clean hands is the best way!)
Line a baking tray (or two!) with non-stick baking paper, add the coated aubergine and put the tray[s] in the oven for 30-35 min or until starting to crisp – this is your smoky aubergine

Chop your potato[es] (skin on) into wedges
Add the wedges to a separate baking tray with a pinch of salt and a drizzle of vegetable oil
Give everything a good mix up and put the tray in the oven for 20-25 min, or until cooked through and golden

Meanwhile, add your smashed avocado to a bowl with a pinch of salt and mash with a fork until smooth

Slice your tomato[es] finely
Wash then remove 2 leaves per person from your lettuce and set aside, shred the inner core[s]
Set aside until serving

Combine your mayo with your Dijon mustard in a bowl – this is your Dijon mayo

Put your ciabatta[s] in the oven for 5 min or until it's hot and crusty
Carefully slice in half before serving

Spread the warmed ciabatta with half the Dijon mayo and layer up with the lettuce leaves, tomato slices, smoky aubergine and smashed avocado – this is your smoky aubergine, smashed avocado & tomato sarnie
Serve the potato wedges, shredded lettuce and remaining Dijon mayo to the side
Enjoy!
