Roasted Brussels

Okay, yes, I DID make it back to Berta’s again this week 😂 This time for their Roasted Brussels, which happens to be vegan!

Now, I don’t think I’ve ever heard of anyone putting Brussels sprouts in a sandwich before, so this was a pretty interesting one. But knowing Berta’s, I already had high expectations. Their Fennel Two Ways is actually my favourite vegetarian sandwich, so I know these guys can do wonders without meat.

The Brussels sprouts were beautifully soft with a lovely charred, smoky flavour. And ohhh, that onion jam! Sooo nice and sweet. I think the Brussels sprouts, creamy baba ganoush and onion jam were really doing most of the heavy lifting here. Such a flavourful combo, with a little tang from the pickled cucumbers to balance everything out.

The Turkish bread was a tad softer than what I usually get from Berta’s, but I did get it takeaway this time, so perhaps that’s why. Still lovely, just missing a bit of that usual crunch.

Honestly, one of the most flavourful vegan sandwiches I’ve had. Even the biggest meat lovers would have a pretty good time with this one. Berta’s really knows how to make a good sandwich, meat or no meat!
