Ingredients

  • 4 burger buns
  • Olive oil
  • 1 eggplant, trimmed and thinly sliced
  • 250 g halloumi, sliced
  • ½ cup Hummus
  • 2 tomatoes, sliced
  • 1 red onion, thinly sliced
  • Handful baby spinach leaves
Substitutions

Replace burger buns with brioche or ciabatta buns or pita pockets.

Method

  1. Preheat your oven grill.
  2. Cut the burger buns in half, brush with olive oil and place on a tray. Toast until golden. Set aside.
  3. Heat a frying pan over high heat. Drizzle the eggplant with olive oil and fry for 4-5 minutes on each side until cooked through and set aside.
  4. Place the halloumi in the frying pan for 1-2 minute on each side, or until golden and hot.
  5. Spread 4 bun halves with hummus. Top with tomato slices, eggplant, halloumi, red onion and spinach, then place the bun ‘lid’ on top.
Chef tips

Toss the halloumi in flour to coat, shaking off any excess, and cook in batches for crispier result.

My family love this recipe. It is always a hit! I drop my son Max off to football and can make this recipe and have the kitchen clean by the time I pick him up. A hump day favourite
