Serves 6
1250 g aubergines
50 ml olive oil
1 onion, diced

750 g minced beef
125 ml white wine
1x 800 g tin of tomatoes (drained weight

2 tbsp parsley, chopped
Salt and pepper
3 tbsp breadcrumbs
500 ml Béchamel sauce, ready-made
2 eggs, beaten
100 g grated Cheddar cheese
Method:
1. Cut the aubergines into 1 cm thick
slices, sprinkle with salt and leave for
20 minutes to draw out the liquid.
2. Sauté the onion in the butter. Add the
mince and brown whilst stirring. Drain
the tomatoes, chop roughly and add to
the meat along with the parsley and the
wine. Season liberally with salt and
pepper, and simmer for about 15
minutes. Fold in the breadcrumbs.
3. Rinse the aubergines under cold
water, pat dry and fry in olive oil until
golden.
4. Arrange half of the aubergines in the
bottom of an oven-proof dish (32 x 22
cm) and then add the meat mixture.
Add the rest of the aubergines. Mix the
eggs and about 2/3 of the cheese into
the Béchamel sauce. Spread the sauce
over the aubergines, and sprinkle with
the rest of the cheese. Bake in the oven
uncovered until golden.
