Roasted eggplant with minced meat is a Turkish home-style dish made by combining soft, fire-roasted eggplant flesh with minced meat, commonly cooked with onion and seasoning. Recipes may also include tomato or pepper, while the smoky eggplant gives the dish much of its character.
The eggplant turns tender and almost creamy, contrasting with the savoury, substantial meat. It is usually served hot as a main course, often alongside rice, bulgur or yoghurt; outside Turkey, it also fits easily into a Mediterranean-style dinner. It provides protein as well as fibre from the eggplant. For a lighter version, choose lean mince and use a modest amount of oil.
