Lamb And Eggplant Aubergine Stack


A magazine find. I altered the amount of cinnamon and cumin to suit our tastes. Remember our aussie tablespoons contain 4 teaspoons.

Steps


Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a pan and cook the onion until soft.
Remove from pan.
Heat the remaining oil and cook meat and spices until well browned-breaking the lumps up with a wooden spoon.
This will take about 10 minutes.
Remove from the heat and stir in the herbs , pine nuts , currants , lemon juice and onion , keep warm.
Heat a chargrill pan until hot.
Slice each eggplant lengthways into thin slices-you will need 12 slices in total.
Brush the slices with oil and season with salt and pepper.
Chargrill on both sides.
Place a slice of eggplant on each plate and top with some of the lamb mixture , then a second eggplant slice.
Repeat teo make a second layer.
Crumble cheese over the stack and serve with lemon wedges and a sprinkle of parsley and or mint.
