Other Ingredients

Instructions
 

  • Cut the eggplant into thin slices and cherry tomatoes into halves. Then, place them on a baking sheet, season with salt and pepper then drizzle lightly with olive oil and dried basil.
  • Roast in the preheated oven (180°C/356°F) until the eggplants are golden and the tomatoes are blistered, approximately 20-25 minutes. Set aside.
  • Slice onions thinly. Heat the pan over medium heat; add the olive oil, onions and salt.
  • Cook slowly, while stirring occasionally, until the onions are golden brown and fragrant, about 20-30 minutes. Set aside.
  • In a small bowl, mix crème fraîche with freshly ground black pepper and a pinch of salt until well combined. Adjust the seasoning according to taste.
  • Brush the gluten-free bread slices with olive oil and dried basil. Toast lightly in a pan or bread toaster.
  • Spread a generous layer of the seasoned crème fraîche on one side of each bread slice.
  • On the other slice of bread, layer the fresh avocado slices, then the roasted eggplant slices, followed by the roasted cherry tomatoes. Spread a small amount of creme fraiche on each layer to keep the fillings together.
  • Add the caramelized onions evenly over the tomatoes. Carefully place the second slice of bread, spread side down, on top of the caramelized onion to complete the sandwich.
