An incredible way to cook a delicious eggplant in no-time!

INGREDIENTS

For the eggplants:

2 eggplants

Water

17 g (1 tbsp) salt

For the meat:

250g minced beef

1 onion, grated

3 cloves garlic, minced

6 g (1 tsp) salt

1 g (1 tsp) dried thyme

1 g (1/2 tsp) paprika

1 g (1/2 tsp) chili flakes

60 ml (4 tbsp) vegetable oil

For the sauce:

30 g (2 tbsp) tomato paste

3 g (1/2 tsp) salt

250 ml (1 cup) water

METHOD

Cut each eggplant in half lengthwise. Put one eggplant half on the cutting board skin side up. Place chopsticks or knives at each side of the eggplant half. Cut diagonal lines in one direction and then in the other, to create a diamond pattern. Continue with the remaining eggplants.
Pour 2 liters of water into a large bowl, add salt and soak eggplants in this water for 15 minutes.
Meanwhile, prepare the meat. In a bowl mix ground beef, grated onion, minced garlic, thyme, paprika, chili flakes, salt, black pepper and vegetable oil.
Take eggplants out of the water and pat dry.
Preheat the oven to 200C/400F.
Use a fork to stuff seasoned meat into each eggplant slot and transfer eggplants to the baking dish.
Prepare the sauce: In a bowl combine tomato paste, water and salt, and mix well.
Pour the sauce over stuffed eggplants and bake for 50 minutes.
Divide between plates, spoon remaining tomato sauce on top and serve immediately.
