Deniz and I made this delicious Turkish dish yesterday. It translates to something like “slit open stomach”. Served with rice it is eggplant stuffed with a ground beef stir fry. There are many different ways of making this but our method was inspired by Arda’s Kitchen (YouTube).

Here’s what we used:

3 Japanese Eggplants. Larger ones cut in half.
A pkg of lean ground beef.
2 Kumato tomatoes. Any kind will do.
3 grape tomatoes from our garden. More would have been nice but they weren’t ripe yet.
Some fresh parsley from our garden.
1 jalapeño pepper from our garden.
1 large clove of garlic.
1 bell pepper. Would have been better to use a long skinny type of pepper, hot (if you like) or sweet.
Tomato paste.
Salt and pepper.

Here’s how we made it:

Start by washing the eggplants and score four sides of the eggplant with a vegetable peeler. Then place in a bowl of salted water. Let sit while while continuing on with next steps.

Dice up onions, Kumato tomatoes and loosely chop up the clove of garlic and parsley. Slice the jalapeño into small slices and cut in half. Remove seeds to lessen heat or leave in for more bite.

In a frying pan, add olive oil and sauté the onions.

Next, add the ground beef.

When the ground beef is cooked, add the jalapeño peppers.

Next, add the diced tomatoes and garlic.

Add the chopped parsley at the very end so it does not cook and retains its flavour.

Add a pinch of salt and pepper. Stir and remove from heat.

Next, we prepare the eggplants. Dry and add to another frying pan with olive oil.

Cook eggplants on medium heat until soft (but not too mushy).

Once cooked remove from frying pan into a plate lined with paper towel to absorb excess oil from the eggplant. Then place in a baking dish.

Next, cut a slit down one of the scored areas of each eggplant.

Then, using a spoon spread open the cut you just made.

Take the ground beef mixture and stuff each eggplant.

Cut the bell pepper to decorate the tops. Again, a different type that is long and skinny would have been better here. We added the grape tomato as well.
