Instructions
Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7.
Halve the bell pepper lengthways and discard the core and seeds. Lay the pepper halves, cut-side down, onto a small baking tray. Drizzle with oil, then season with salt and pepper.
When the oven is hot, roast on the middle shelf until soft and slightly charred, 18-20 mins.
Making this kid friendly? Slice up the kids' pepper into strips and serve on the side as a crunchy snack.
Meanwhile, chop the potatoes lengthways into 1cm slices, then chop into 1cm wide fries (no need to peel).
Pop the fries onto a large baking tray. Drizzle with oil, season with salt and pepper, then sprinkle over the mixed herbs. Toss to coat, then spread out in a single layer. TIP: Use two baking trays if necessary.
Bake your herby fries on the top shelf until golden, 25-30 mins. Turn halfway through.
Making this kid friendly? Keep half the fries plain without the herbs.
While everything roasts, halve the ciabatta. Spread each cut side evenly with the pesto.
Drain the mozzarella and squeeze out as much liquid as you can. Pat dry with kitchen paper, then tear into small pieces.
Grate the Cheddar.
Lay your mozzarella pieces on the base of each ciabatta followed by the grated Cheddar and the Serrano ham. Season well with pepper.
Once cooked, place a roasted pepper half on top of each cheesy ciabatta base.
Sandwich shut with the ciabatta lids and firmly press all the ingredients inside.
Heat a drizzle of oil in a large frying pan on medium-high heat.
Once hot, add the paninis, pressing down with a spatula or heavy-bottomed pan.
Cook, pressing occasionally, until the bread is golden and toasted and the cheese has melted, 2-4 mins per side.
Slice your paninis diagonally, then divide between your plates with the herby fries alongside.
Share the rocket between your plates and drizzle over the balsamic glaze to finish.
Enjoy!
