Cooking Steps

Boil plenty of water in a pot or saucepan and cook the pasta for 10 - 12 minutes, then drain and set aside.
Chop the onion and crush or mince the garlic.
Dice the eggplant into 1cm cubes.

Did you know... eggplants are not only a very versatile vegetable, they're also a great source of iron and vitamin C.

Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a large frying pan over high heat.
Fry the eggplant for 4 - 5 minutes.
Add the mince and fry for 3 more minutes, separating it as you do so.
Add half of the Middle Eastern spices and fry for 2 more minutes.

Heat a light drizzle of olive oil in a deep frying pan over medium-high heat. Fry the garlic and onion for 2 - 3 minutes.
Deglaze with the balsamic vinegar.
Add the passata, the honey and the rest of the Middle Eastern spices. Simmer for 4 - 5 minutes.
Transfer the pasta, eggplant and mince to the sauce. Mix well to combine and season to taste with salt and pepper.

Meanwhile, grate the Parmigiano Reggiano. Finely chop the parsley.
In a small bowl, combine the yogurt with the parsley. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
Serve the pasta on deep plates and garnish with the Parmigiano Reggiano.
Drizzle with the yogurt sauce.
