Preheat oven to 180°C. Place all your ingredients (except the egg & those required to serve!) in a large blender / liquidizer - you may need to do this in 2 batches.

Liquidize the mixture until it is frothy & completely smooth. Whisk the egg, then pour over the top of the batter.
- 3
Cook for around 45 minutes or until the top is lightly golden but the middle is still slightly squishy / sloppy (unless you like it firmer, in which case cook it 5 - 10 minutes more).
- 4
Slice the garantita into 8 pieces (a large, wide spatula or cake knife is useful for this!)
- 5
Cut each baguette into 1/4's, then split open & remove a little of the inner bread. Spread the bottom of each 1/4 of baguette with 1/2 tbsp of the harissa & lay the garantita on top. Sprinkle with a little cumin then cover with the top of the baguette - to make a sandwhich.

If you have any Selecto to drink, it makes the perfect accompanyment!
