Equipment

  • knife
  • Paper towels for excess oil

Ingredients

  • 1 Fresh focaccia roll or pick your favourite type of bread, just make sure its fresh out of the oven!
  • 100 grams Freshly sliced Prosciutto di Parma or San Daniele
  • 1 tbsp Marinated mushrooms
  • 2 slices Grilled eggplant You can also buy them from the deli
  • 3-4 slices Fontina cheese
  • Extra virgin olive oil EVOO

Instructions

  • Cut the focaccia into smaller pieces and then slice each of them in half..ready to be filled!
  • Slice the pieces of cheese into smaller pieces so you can line them up inside the yummy panini!
  • Drizzle extra virgin olive oil over each side of the italian panini and then squash the pieces together so help the oil absorb into the soft dough.
  • Open up the italian panini again with the inside facing up.
  • Layer the 2 x slices of eggplant on the bottom half.
  • Add at least 2 x slices of prosciutto on top.
  • Get a spoonful of marinated mushrooms and put them on the paper towel to get rid of the excess oil, then add them on top.
  • Place as many pieces of cheese as you wish on top, to cover up the rest of the ingredients.
  • Put the other slice of bread on top, and squash it down so that the panino and all its yummy insiides start to stick together.
  • E ora si mangia, Vincenzo’s Plate….Enjoy!
