INGREDIENTS
4.5 oz Ground Lamb
1 cup Eggplant (cubed)
1/2 cup Tomato Sauce (No Salt Added)
0.5 oz Feta Cheese
1 small Onion
1 Garlic Clove
1 tsp Ground Cumin
1 tsp Paprika
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
Dice the eggplant into cubes and slice the small onion finely. Mince the garlic clove.
In a medium skillet over medium heat, add the ground lamb. Break it apart and cook until it starts to brown.
Add the chopped onion and minced garlic to the lamb, stirring until the onion softens.
Mix in the ground cumin, paprika, salt, and pepper. Let the spices toast for a minute to enhance their flavor.
Stir in the tomato sauce and allow the mixture to simmer for about 5 minutes.
In a lightly greased small casserole dish, layer the cubed eggplant as the base layer.
Spread the spiced ground lamb mixture evenly over the eggplant.
Sprinkle crumbled feta cheese on top.
Cover the dish with foil and bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, then remove the foil and bake for an additional 5 minutes to allow the top to lightly brown.
Remove from the oven and let it rest for a couple of minutes before serving.
