It's easy to throw together a fancy sub when you have our pulled pork handy. While the fries and cherry tomatoes do their thing in the oven, the tender pork mingles with our garlic and herb seasoning and a good glug of tomato paste in the pan - leaving you with a few minutes spare to warm the ciabatta and toss the salad. Don't forget to serve with the aioli for some dipping action!

Cooking Steps
Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. Cut potato into fries. Place on a lined oven tray. Drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with Italian herbs and season with salt. Toss to coat. Bake until tender, 20-25 minutes.
TIP: If your oven tray is crowded, divide the fries between two trays.
Meanwhile, pick herb leaves. Place cherry tomatoes and herbs on a second lined oven tray. Add the balsamic vinegar, a pinch of salt and a drizzle of olive oil. Toss to coat, then roast until blistered, 15-20 minutes.
When the fries have 10 minutes remaining, heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook garlic & herb seasoning and tomato paste until fragrant, 1 minute. Add pulled pork, the butter, brown sugar and a splash of water and cook, breaking up pork with a spoon, until browned and warmed through, 2-3 minutes.
While the pork is cooking, place bake-at-home ciabatta directly on an oven wire rack until heated through, 3 minutes.
While the ciabatta is toasting, thinly slice pear. In a large bowl, combine mustard cider dressing and a drizzle of olive oil. Season with salt and pepper. Add pear and spinach, rocket & fennel mix. Toss to coat. Top with grated Parmesan cheese.
Slice ciabatta in half, lengthwise. Spread ciabatta with creamy pesto dressing, then fill each sub with pulled pork, fennel salad and roast cherry tomatoes. Serve with herby fries, garlic aioli and any remaining salad and roast tomatoes.

Review summary
Updated on July 2026- Flavour: The pulled pork is widely praised for its tender texture and bold seasoning, with the roast tomatoes and pear salad adding a nice balance to the richness.
- Ease of prep: Most found this a quick and straightforward meal to put together, with the oven doing much of the work.
- Suggestions: Several reviewers found the fillings quite saucy and messy — draining a little excess moisture before loading the sub can help. Some felt the tomato paste was overpowering, so consider using a touch less if you prefer a milder flavour.
- Leftovers: A few customers enjoyed the leftovers the next day, with one noting it made a great lunch.
- Portions: Some felt the pork quantity was on the lighter side for four servings, so consider supplementing if you have big appetites.
