Peel the eggplants in stripes, cut them into large cubes, soak them in salted water for 12 minutes, and dry them.
Cube the pide and dry it in a 190°C oven for 8 minutes.
Brown the lamb in half the olive oil for 8 minutes, until it takes on color.
Chop the onion, add it to the meat, and soften for 5 minutes.
Add the tomato paste, hot water, chickpeas, salt, and black pepper, then cook for 35 minutes.
Fry the eggplants in the remaining olive oil for 8 minutes, then make a sauce with the tomatoes and garlic in a separate pan for 6 minutes.
Spread the toasted pide on a plate, moisten it with the lamb and chickpea broth, top with eggplant and tomato sauce, and serve.
💡 Tip: Dry the bread in the oven but do not burn it; overly browned bread leaves a bitter note once it absorbs the meat broth.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve tesrube hot on a wide platter with optional ayran, sumac onions, and roasted peppers for a Kilis style table.
