Method
- Put the mushrooms in a large bowl and scatter over the garlic, a generous drizzle of olive oil, a generous pinch of sea salt and lots of freshly cracked black pepper. Toss to coat and leave to marinate for 20 minutes.
- Put a griddle pan on a high heat and leave it for several minutes to get piping hot. Pop on the mushrooms and cook for 4–5 minutes, until they are deeply golden. Turn and continue to cook until they’re shrunken and flat. Remove from the heat and slice. Keep warm.
- Brush the cut ciabatta halves with a little oil. Put the ciabattas in the pan, cut side down, and toast them for 1–2 minutes, until well marked.
- To serve, slather both sides of the toasted ciabattas with Ballymaloe Mayo. Put the bottom half of the ciabattas on a board and spread generously with Ballymaloe Red Onion Relish, followed by the rocket, then the sliced mushrooms. Finally, scatter over the cheese and sandwich together with the top halves of the ciabatta.
