INGREDIENTS
5 oz Ground Lamb
1 cup cubed Eggplant
1/2 cup Diced Tomatoes
1/4 cup chopped Onion
1 Garlic clove
1 tsp Olive Oil
1/4 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1/2 tsp Cumin
1/2 tsp Paprika
1/4 tsp Cinnamon
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic, sautéing until soft and fragrant.
Add the ground lamb to the skillet, breaking it up with a spoon. Cook until browned.
Stir in the cumin, paprika, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Let the spices coat the meat evenly.
Add the diced tomatoes and allow the mixture to simmer for 5 minutes. Adjust seasoning if needed.
In a separate pan, lightly sauté the cubed eggplant until just tender, about 3-4 minutes, ensuring it still holds its shape.
In a casserole dish, layer the sautéed eggplant first, then spread the spiced ground lamb mixture evenly over the eggplant.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes to meld the flavors.
Remove from the oven and top the casserole with dollops of nonfat Greek yogurt. Garnish with additional pepper if desired and serve warm.
