Aldi B.M.T.
Fakeaway
Italian B.M.T. style — salami, pepperoni and ham layered into Aldi sub rolls, baked until the meat crisps and the bread toasts, then loaded with cold shredded lettuce, paper-thin red onion, jalapeños and peri peri sauce. The hot and cold contrast is everything.

Finely shred the gem lettuce and slice the red onion as thinly as possible — paper-thin is the goal. Drain the jalapeños if using from a jar. Set everything aside in the fridge so it stays cold.
Preheat your oven to 180°C fan. Open the sub rolls and layer on the salami, pepperoni, and ham. Add cheese slices on top if using. Bake for 5–7 minutes until the meat edges begin to crisp, the bread is lightly toasted, and any cheese has fully melted.
Remove from the oven. Immediately top with the cold shredded lettuce, red onion, and jalapeños straight from the fridge. Drizzle generously with peri peri sauce. The contrast between the hot, crispy meat and the cold, fresh salad is what makes this.
Serve straight away while the contrast between hot and cold is at its best. Add any optional sides — skin-on fries, crisps, or a side salad. Eat immediately — these don’t sit well.
