Spiced Lean Lamb and Roasted Eggplant Bake with Creamy Cauliflower Topping
A savory baked dish featuring lean ground lamb spiced to perfection, layered with tender roasted eggplant and crowned with a silky, creamy cauliflower topping. This dish balances robust spices with the natural sweetness of vegetables for an enticing, nutrient-packed meal.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Lean Ground Lamb
1/2 medium Eggplant
1 cup Cauliflower
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1/4 Red Onion
1 clove Garlic
1 tsp Ground Cumin
1 tsp Ground Coriander
1 tsp Smoked Paprika
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
Dice the eggplant into 1-inch cubes and slice the red onion thinly. Toss them in olive oil, salt, pepper, and half of the ground spices.
Spread the eggplant and onion on a baking sheet and roast in the oven for 20-25 minutes until tender and slightly caramelized.
While the vegetables roast, warm a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the lean ground lamb, breaking it apart with a spatula. Stir in the minced garlic, remaining cumin, coriander, and smoked paprika. Season with salt and pepper. Cook until the lamb is browned and cooked through, about 6-8 minutes.
For the creamy cauliflower topping, steam or microwave the cauliflower until soft (about 5-7 minutes). Transfer to a blender and blend until smooth. Add a pinch of salt and pepper to taste.
In a baking dish, layer the spiced lamb and roasted eggplant mixture. Spread the creamy cauliflower topping evenly over the top.
Return the dish to the oven for an additional 5-10 minutes to meld the flavors.
Serve warm and enjoy your balanced, hearty bake!
