Description

This recipe for stuffed eggplants is an absolute treat! I like to make it when I have guests because it is easy to prepare and tastes incredibly delicious. The eggplants are filled with a spicy ground meat filling and baked in the oven until nicely softened. The combination of the tender eggplant flesh, the hearty ground meat and the creamy sauce is simply irresistible. Served with basmati rice, it is a perfect main course for the whole family. If you like, you can sprinkle some cheese on top - a poem!
