INGREDIENTS
1 medium Eggplant (200g)
100 grams Lean Ground Lamb
1/2 cup Tomato Sauce (125g)
1/2 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt (125g)
1 Garlic Clove
1 tbsp Fresh Basil
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Slice the eggplant lengthwise into 1/4-inch thick slices. Sprinkle lightly with salt and let them rest for 10 minutes to draw out moisture.
Meanwhile, in a skillet over medium heat, sauté the minced garlic until fragrant. Add the lean ground lamb and cook until it is browned and crumbly.
Stir in the tomato sauce with the lamb, and let it simmer for 5 minutes. Season lightly with salt and pepper to taste.
In a small bowl, mix the nonfat Greek yogurt with chopped fresh basil to create a creamy topping.
Layer the eggplant slices in a baking dish, spread a layer of the lamb and tomato sauce mixture, and repeat if desired. Top the final layer with the creamy yogurt mixture.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes until the eggplant is tender and the flavors meld together.
Serve warm and enjoy this nutritious layered dish that perfectly balances taste with your dietary goals.
