Air-Fried Aubergine, Tomato, Cucumber and Egg Pitta with Hummus and Tahini Dressing
Sabich is a popular street food in Tel Aviv that originated in the Iraqi Jewish community. Meltingly tender fried aubergine, crunchy gherkins and a refreshing chopped cucumber and tomato salad, drizzled with a luscious tahini dressing. This is one to give falafel a run for its money. The aubergine is traditionally deep-fried, here we have used an air-fryer to keep things lighter. If you don’t have one the aubergine can be baked in the oven at 190°C for 20 minutes, until tender and golden.

Notes
If you want to prepare in advance we recommend scraping out the seeds from the cucumber and tomatoes, which can release water over time and lead to a soggy sandwich. The excess pulp can be used in gazpacho.
The cooking time here will give a firm but jammy egg, feel free to cook for shorter or longer to suit your taste.
Alternatives:
tomatoes, cucumbers - bell peppers, chopped lettuce.
pitta bread -tortilla wrap
parsley- mint, basil, coriander, chives
eggs - tofu, cut into small bite-size pieces
