Eggplant 'Nduja Sandwich

Premium

Budget-friendly
This sandwich is bursting with smoky and savoury flavours. At its core is a rich and slightly spicy vegan paste inspired by ‘Nduja: a traditional spreadable Italian salami. While it’s entirely plant-based, this paste draws inspiration from the bold, complex character of the original. We layered it with hearty chickpeas, roasted eggplant, and added fresh arugula and juicy tomato for balance. Perfect for a satisfying and flavourful lunch!

Sandwich is still waiting to be eaten but Nduja has been tested with avocado bagel and OMG absolutely amazing.

This was a big hit - great flavors! The only modification I made was I used previously grilled eggplant and did not recook with the paste - just added to sandwich (since I had it). The chickpea mixture is so tasty - It will be great on its own too!

I also made it by spreading on toast. And I think maybe it will even be better than losing some on the pan 🤪

Great flavour and with the tomatoes and greens it tastes really fresh! I like to add a little vegan mozzarella if I have any.
