- 2 average size eggplants
- 4-5 tbs of drained plain Greek yoghurt
- 4 average size potatoes chopped
- Splash of milk and cream (about 4-5 tbs full each)
- 1 tbs butter
- A hand full of grated cheddar cheese
- A hand full of chopped walnuts
- 500 gr of lean beef mince
- 1 large onion chopped

- Mild chilli flakes
- Dried oregano
- Salt and pepper to your taste

- Prick and roast the eggplants on the BBQ for a rich smokey flavour about an hour on mid temperature. The longer they cook, the better they get. If you don’t own a BBQ then put them in the oven on about 150˚C.
- While they are roasting, boil the chopped potatoes with two teaspoons of salt for a mash.
- Fry the mince in a deep frying pan with little olive oil and spices. Add the chopped onion, 4 cloves of garlic, chopped walnuts, the sliced banana capsicum and fresh chillies. Add more olive oil if need to. Season it with salt and pepper to your taste.
- Mash the cooked potatoes with a hand mixer and add the cream, milk, butter and cheese.
- Scoop the flesh out of the cooked and cooled eggplants then mash them roughly with a spoon or fork. Mix it with the strained yoghurt and crushed garlic. Season it with salt and pepper.
- On a serving plate put the half of mash potatoes, put the mince mixture in the middle and the eggplant mixture at the top. Garnish it with chopped parsley and sliced chillies.
