Broccoli Rabe and Provolone Grinders

These broccoli rabe and provolone grinders offer a sophisticated, vegetarian take on the classic sub sandwich. Combining the slight bitterness of rapini with the sharp, melted notes of aged provolone, this recipe creates a deeply satisfying meal. The addition of a creamy, homemade cannellini bean purée provides a velvety texture and a punch of protein, ensuring these sandwiches are as filling as they are flavourful. The hint of lemon and chilli adds a bright, zesty finish that cuts through the rich cheese.

Perfect for a weekend lunch or a casual evening meal, these toasted rolls are a fantastic way to elevate simple pantry staples like tinned beans into a gourmet feast. They are easily prepared in advance, making them an excellent choice for hosting friends or preparing a quick midweek dinner. Serve them warm from the oven while the bread is crisp and the cheese is beautifully gooey for the best possible experience.

  • 6 tablespoons olive oil, divided

  • 3 garlic cloves, thinly sliced

  • 1/2 teaspoons crushed red pepper flakes

  • 1 425g can cannellini (white kidney) beans with liquid

  • Koshersalt, nymalen peppar

  • 4 bunches broccoli rabe (rapini, 4-2.3kg ), ends trimmed

  • Koshersalt

  • 120ml olive oil, divided, plus more

  • 1 head of garlic, cloves peeled and thinly sliced

  • 1 1/2 teaspoons crushed red pepper flakes

  • 3 tablespoons (or more) fresh lemon juice

  • Nymalen svartpeppar

  • 8 6"-8"-long French rolls, split lengthwise

  • 230g thinly sliced provolone piccante or other aged provolone cheese

  • 1 Fresno chilli or red jalapeño, seeded, very thinly sliced

Heat 45ml oil in a small saucepan over medium-low heat; add garlic and red pepper flakes. Cook, stirring often, until garlic begins to turn golden, about 4 minutes. Add beans with liquid. Bring to a simmer; cook, stirring often, until liquid thickens, about 10 minutes. Transfer to a food processor; add 3 tablespoons oil. Process until smooth. Season with salt and pepper.

Cook broccoli rabe, 1 bunch at a time, in a large pot of boiling salted water for 2 minutes (return to a boil between batches). Transfer broccoli rabe to a baking sheet; let cool. Squeeze dry; coarsely chop.

Heat a large pot over medium heat; add 60ml oil, garlic, and red pepper flakes. Cook, stirring often, until garlic is fragrant and beginning to turn golden, 2-3 minutes. Add broccoli rabe; cook, stirring often, until stem pieces are just tender, 4-5 minutes. Add remaining 60ml oil and 3 tablespoons lemon juice. Season with salt, pepper, and more juice, if desired. Spread out on a rimmed baking sheet and let cool. DO AHEAD: Can be made one day ahead. Cover and chill.

Arrange racks in top and bottom thirds of oven; preheat to 204°C. Open rolls and arrange on 2 rimmed baking sheets. Drizzle generously with oil. Spread bean purée on one side of each roll; add broccoli rabe. Top with cheese, then chilli. Toast, rotating pans after 5 minutes, until cheese is melted, 7-10 minutes. Top, slice, and serve.
