Savor the rich flavors of seasoned ground lamb combined with tender roasted eggplant and a luxurious, tangy Greek yogurt cream sauce. This hearty bake is elevated with a blend of warming spices and a hint of tomato paste, creating a balanced dish that's both comforting and vibrant.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Ground Lamb
1 cup Eggplant, chopped
1/2 cup Greek Yogurt (Nonfat)
2 tbsp Tomato Paste
1 tsp Olive Oil
1/2 tsp Ground Cumin
1/2 tsp Ground Coriander
Salt and Pepper, to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
Dice the eggplant into 1-inch cubes and toss with olive oil, salt, pepper, and half of the ground cumin and coriander.
Spread the eggplant on a baking sheet and roast in the oven for about 20 minutes until tender and slightly caramelized.
While the eggplant roasts, heat a skillet over medium heat and add the ground lamb. Season with the remaining cumin, coriander, salt, and pepper. Cook until the lamb is browned and almost cooked through, breaking it apart into small pieces.
Stir in the tomato paste with the lamb and let it cook together for another 2-3 minutes to meld the flavors.
Mix in the Greek yogurt into the lamb mixture to create a creamy sauce, and remove from heat.
Combine the roasted eggplant with the creamy spiced lamb mixture in a baking dish. Gently fold together to evenly distribute the flavors.
Return the dish to the oven for an additional 10 minutes to allow the flavors to blend.
Serve warm, garnished with a sprinkle of extra spices or fresh herbs if desired.
