How to Make Stuffed Aubergines With Lamb
- Preheat the oven to 375°F.
- Cut the aubergines in half lengthwise and scoop out the flesh, leaving a shell about 1/4 inch thick. Chop the flesh and set it aside.
- In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic and sauté until softened, about 5 minutes.
- Add the ground lamb to the skillet and cook until browned, stirring occasionally.
- Add the chopped aubergine flesh, chopped tomatoes, parsley, mint, cumin, coriander, salt, and pepper. Stir well to combine.
- Add the water to the skillet and simmer for about 10 minutes, until the mixture has thickened and the vegetables are tender.
- Stuff the aubergine shells with the lamb mixture and place them in a baking dish.
- Cover the dish with foil and bake for 30-35 minutes, until the aubergines are tender.
- Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, until the tops are golden brown.
- Serve hot and enjoy!
