Ingredients

Ingredients (6 Servings):

1 large eggplant, thinly sliced

Olive oil cooking spray

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 medium brown onion, finely chopped

2 garlic cloves, crushed

800g beef mince

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

½ teaspoon ground allspice

2 x 400g cans crushed tomatoes

200g tub plain Greek-style yoghurt

1 cup grated tasty cheese

Salad leaves and lemon wedges, to serve

Instructions

Method:

Spray eggplant with oil. Heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Cook eggplant, in batches, for 2 to 3 minutes each side or until browned. Transfer to a chopping board. Roughly chop.

Meanwhile, heat oil in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Add onion and garlic. Cook, stirring, for 5 minutes or until onion has softened.

Add mince. Cook, stirring with a wooden spoon to break up mince, for 6 minutes or until browned.

Add cinnamon and allspice. Cook, stirring, for 30 seconds or until fragrant.

Add tomato. Bring to the boil. Reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer for 15 minutes or until sauce has thickened.

Preheat grill on high. Add eggplant to mince mixture. Stir to combine. Spoon mixture into an 8 cup-capacity ovenproof dish.

Spread yoghurt over mince mixture. Sprinkle with cheese. Grill for 3 minutes or until cheese is golden.

Sprinkle with extra cinnamon and serve with salad leaves and lemon wedges.
