Oven-Baked Eggplant with Minced Meat, No Potato is a Turkish home-style dish: eggplants are split and filled with minced meat, often cooked with onion, tomato and pepper, then baked until tender. Unlike versions made by frying the eggplants first, this preparation goes straight to the oven and leaves out potatoes.
