Ingredients

  • Parmesan: 3 tbsp parmesan, finely grated
  • Tomato: 400g can chopped tomato with garlic and herbs
  • Egg: 1 egg, beaten
  • Greek Yogurt: 150g pot 0% Greek yogurt
  • Aubergine: 1 large aubergine
  • Tomato Puree: 4 tbsp sun-dried tomato puree
  • Potato: 400g leftover boiled potato (or 350g/12oz uncooked weight boiled)
  • Minced Beef: 500g pack lean minced beef

Directions

  1. Heat the grill to high. Brown the beef in a deep ovenproof frying pan over a high heat for 5 mins. Meanwhile, prick the aubergine with a fork, then microwave on High for 3-5 mins until soft. Mix the yogurt, egg and parmesan together, then add a little seasoning.
  2. Stir the tomatoes, puree and potatoes in with the beef with some seasoning and heat through. Smooth the surface of the beef mixture with the back of a spoon, then slice the cooked aubergine and arrange on top. Pour the yogurt mixture over the aubergines, smooth out evenly, then grill until the topping has set and turned golden.
