I was looking for a new way to use eggplant recently and found this Turkish meat and eggplant casserole. If I were using really fresh eggplant (like from the local farmer's market), I would skip step 1. I used less salt (in step 4) and substituted butter flavored nonstick spray for the butter. I also didn't bother to peel the tomatoes. (By the way, I think there should actually be an umlaut over the u in Guvec and a cedilla under the c but I don't know how to add them.)

Time 1h30m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 small eggplants, sliced
2 teaspoons salt
2 tablespoons butter
2 lbs lamb, cut in 1-inch cubes
2 onions, sliced
1/2 lb green beans, cut in half
3 small zucchini or 2 medium zucchini, sliced thick
4 medium tomatoes, peeled and quartered
fresh ground pepper
2 tablespoons chopped parsley

Steps:

  • Sprinkle the eggplant slices with 1 tsp salt and let sit 20 minutes; rinse thoroughly and drain. (This step releases some of the bitter juices from the eggplant.).
  • In a flameproof casserole or ovenproof large skillet, saute the lamb in butter until browned on all sides.
  • Add onions and saute 2 more minutes.
  • Toss together the beans through tomatoes with remaining 1 tsp salt plus pepper to taste and arrange atop the meat and eggplant.
  • Add water to almost cover the vegetables, sprinkle with paprika and bring to a boil over moderate heat.
  • Transfer to a preheated 350F oven and bake 50-60 minutes until lamb is tender.
  • Sprinkle with parsley and serve.
