We could pretend the main attraction here is the tender roasted eggplant with refreshing herbs, or the succulent spiced pork, but that’d be dishonest. If we’re being real, the magic in this dish is the stunning sumac roasted potatoes delicately topped with a smattering of crumbly cheese. It's crispy, filling, earthy and indulgent. We could go on and on, but we’ll let you get on with the eating. Bon appetite!

Preheat the oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. Cut potato into bite-sized chunks. Place on a lined oven tray. Drizzle with olive oil, season with salt and toss to coat. Roast until tender, 20-25 minutes. Remove from oven and sprinkle over Turkish sumac seasoning and toss to combine.
While the potatoes are roasting, thinly slice eggplant into 1cm round slices. Place on a second lined oven tray. Drizzle with olive oil (1/4 cup for 2 people / 1/2 cup for 4 people), sprinkle with garlic & herb seasoning and season with salt and pepper. Roast until golden and tender, 15-20 minutes.
While the eggplant is roasting, roughly chop tomato. Pick and thinly slice herbs. In a medium bowl, combine tomato and a drizzle of white wine vinegar and olive oil. In a second medium bowl, combine chermoula spice blend and a drizzle of olive oil. Add pork loin steaks and turn to coat.
When the potatoes have 10 minutes cook time remaining, heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. When oil is hot, cook pork until cooked through, 3-4 minutes each side (cook in batches if your pan is getting crowded). Transfer to a plate, then drizzle over the honey, cover and rest for 5 minutes.
Transfer eggplant to a serving plate and top with tomato salad. Sprinkle over herbs.
Slice Middle Eastern pork steak. Top potatoes with crumbled cheese. Bring everything to the table to serve. Help yourself to pork, crumbly cheese sumac potatoes, eggplant and tomato-herb salad. Serve with garlic dip.
