Instructions

Season the prawns and bake them over medium-high heat until well browned, about 4 minutes.

Add the basil, cherry tomatoes and eggplant, cooking until softened, about 4 minutes.

Stir in the pecorino romano, chili flakes, parmesan and fresh basil for a final minute.

Toast the ciabatta separately.

Let the prawns simmer gently for about 20 minutes so they stay tender and the flavors meld.

Taste and adjust the seasoning.

Serve hot over the ciabatta, garnished with fresh herbs.
