Method
11 steps- Make bomba: heat about 40 cloves of garlic in olive oil on high until bubbling and color develops, then cool and strain oil. Blend roasted garlic, cherry peppers, Calabrian chili, salt, and garlic oil until smooth to make bomba.
- Dice peppers and onions into thick dices. Slice garlic. Rinse broccoli rabe and set aside.
- Cook broccoli rabe in a small pot with garlic oil, tossing with toasted garlic until bright steamed, then squeeze lemon juice and steam off to the side.
- Preheat griddle to medium-medium high, add oil, and cook sausage until browned, flipping to brown both sides, then remove from heat.
- Add peppers and onions to the griddle, season with salt, cook until softened, then add garlic and cook until color develops, then push to cool side.
- Slice sausage, drain excess moisture, and re-fry to crisp the skin, then slice into pieces.
- Toast the roll in a toaster until warm.
- On the hot griddle, add oil, cook sausage with seasoning until color develops, then add peppers and onions, mixing to marry flavors.
- Add provolone cheese on top of the sausage mixture, let melt, then chop the cheese into the meat until homogenized.
- Slice open the roll, spread bomba inside, stuff with sausage and peppers, top with broccoli rabe, and sprinkle pecorino cheese.
- Cut the sandwich in half and serve.
