Roast the eggplants, peel them, and leave them in a sieve for 10 minutes.
Sear the lamb in a wide pot for 10 minutes.
Add the onion and saute for 5 minutes so the browned base dissolves.
Add a little hot water and cook the meat covered for 20 minutes.
Spread the roasted eggplant into the pot and cook with the meat for 10 minutes.
Rest the dish for 5 minutes and serve without breaking the eggplant texture.
Do not fold the eggplant from bottom to top when serving, so the roasted texture stays in strands.
💡 Tip: Coarsely mashing the roasted eggplant gives better texture beside the meat.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve hot with lavash and onion salad.
