Cooking Steps

Prepare the eggplant
1
  • Preheat the oven to 200°C.
  • Dice the eggplant and transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  • Drizzle generously with olive oil and season with salt and pepper, then toss well to coat.
  • Roast in the oven for 17 - 20 minutes.
Fry the vegetables
2
  • Chop the onion and dice the carrot into 1cm chunks (see Tip).
  • Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat.
  • Fry the onion with the carrot for 3 - 5 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, dice the tomato. 

Tip: be sure to dice the carrot finely, otherwise it will take longer to cook.

Fry the mince
3
  • Stir in the fresh tomato, the mince and the Middle Eastern spices, then crumble in the stock cube (see pantry for amount).
  • Fry for 3 - 4 more minutes, then deglaze with the balsamic vinegar.
Prepare the sauce
4
  • Drain and rinse the lentils, then transfer to the frying pan, along with the chopped tomatoes. 
  • Mix well to combine and season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Allow the sauce to reduce for 3 - 4 minutes over low heat.
Assemble
