Ingredients
500 g eggplant
2 tablespoons of vegetable oil
½ teaspoon of salt
1 medium onion, finely chopped
1 tablespoon of vegetable oil
400 g ground meat
Salt and pepper to taste
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon of turmeric
2 cups washed and drained rice
4 cups of water
¼ cup roasted almonds
How to prepare
Cut the eggplant into thin circles and place them on parchment paper in a tray. Grease with oil and sprinkle with salt, then put in a preheated oven until it browns.
In a pan over the heat, cook the onions in oil until blond. Add meat with spices and cook over a low heat until tender. Add the rice and water then leave the mixture over heat until the rice becomes tender.
In a round mold, cover a layer of eggplant at the bottom then cover it with a layer of rice. Repeat in this order and top the last layer with eggplants.
Place the mold in the pre-heated oven for 10 minutes, then flip it slowly and gently over a presentation plate.
Garnish with roasted almonds and serve hot with yogurt.
