MAMA'S OH-SO-SAVORY LAMB AND EGGPLANT CASSEROLE
The basis of this recipe came from my 4th grade teacher's mother who was Armenian, and I've been making it for over 50 years. It is easy to put together, but the longer the stovetop step simmers, the better the casserole will be when served. Leftovers are yummy! You could serve this over rice, if you like, with a green salad. I just serve it in pasta bowls with crusty bread, butter, and a nice glass of red wine. Enjoy!

Steps:
- Place eggplant in a colander set in a bowl or the sink; sprinkle with 1 teaspoon salt and toss to coat. Let eggplant stand for at least 1 hour. Rinse off the bitter liquid and excess salt and drain well.
- Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Stir in onion and celery; cook and stir until onion has softened and turned translucent and celery is fragrant, about 5 minutes.
- While vegetables are cooking, combine ground cumin, oregano, rosemary, paprika, mint, salt, and black pepper in a small bowl or mortar and pestle and mix well; this is the lamb seasoning (see Cook's Note). Set seasoning aside.
- Stir eggplant cubes and garlic into the vegetables in the skillet, mixing well, and cook for an additional 5 minutes. Add chopped tomatoes and sprinkle with half of the lamb seasoning mixture. Reserve remaining seasoning. Stir gently and cook for 5 minutes more.
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a 2-quart casserole dish.
- Pour chicken broth and half the can of tomato sauce into the skillet and simmer for 10 minutes; add a little water if the sauce starts to get dry. Transfer the sauce to the prepared casserole dish.
- Return the skillet to the stove over medium-high heat and heat the reserved tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Place ground lamb into skillet and sprinkle with remaining seasoning mixture. Brown lamb in the hot oil, stirring frequently, until the meat is evenly browned; it should look like imperfect meatballs.
- Gently transfer the lamb to the casserole dish, pushing it down into the vegetable mixture so that it is at least partially submerged. Stir fresh lemon juice into the remaining tomato sauce and pour the sauce over the casserole.
- Bake uncovered for 45 minutes to 1 hour, depending upon how tender you like your vegetables.

EGGPLANT AND LAMB STEW
The Arabic name (which I can't remember) means 'It cooks itself.' Most Middle Eastern food is time-consuming to make; this name implies that the cook is embarrassed to serve something so simple. Best served over rice.

Steps:
- In a large pot, melt the butter over medium heat, and brown the lamb on all sides. Mix in the eggplants, tomatoes, onions, green bell peppers, and garlic. Cook and stir until tender and lightly browned.
- In a small bowl, blend the tomato paste and water. Mix into the pot with the lamb. Season lamb with allspice, salt, and pepper. Reduce heat, and simmer about 1 1/2 hours, stirring occasionally, until the meat shreds easily with a fork. Add a little water as necessary to keep the ingredients moist.

Steps:
- Place oil in a pan with all of the spices and tomato paste, and heat for 2-3 minutes until an aroma starts to develop.
- Place the meat in a casserole or oven-proof dish and pour over the hot spice mixture. Work through the meat.
- Mix in all the other ingredients aside from the fresh herbs and lemon zest.
- Cover tightly and bake for 2 hours at 150°C until lamb is meltingly tender.
- Just before serving mix through lemon zest and chopped herbs. Adjust seasonings to taste.
- Recipe easily doubles (trebles!) - cook in a covered roasting dish.
- Substitute beef for the lamb and add other vegetables such as zucchini, mixed peppers or okra.
- The Vegetarian Variation: Use a cup or two of cooked chickpeas instead of the meat along with your choice of vegies (but think mediterranean).

Stir in the garlic and rosemary and swirl for 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer the oil mixture to a mixing bowl and add the eggplant, potatoes, tomatoes, onions, olives, lamb and cheese. Toss to combine and fill the peppers, slightly overstuffing them. Set the tops in place and roast for1 hour. Cool and store for a make-ahead meal.
- Reheat in a hot oven by adding a little chicken stock or water to the baking dish for moisture. Cover the baking dish with foil and bake for 20 minutes. Remove the foil and bake until hot and cooked through, about 10 more minutes. Serve 2 peppers per adult portion.

Steps:
- For lamb patties:
- Combine breadcrumbs and 1/4 cup water in small bowl. Soak 5 minutes. Squeeze all water from crumbs. Place crumbs in large bowl. Add lamb and remaining ingredients; mix gently to combine. Shape into 12 oval patties, each about 2 1/2 inches long and 3/4 inch thick.
- For eggplant mixture:
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Combine cubed eggplant and 4 tablespoons oil in large bowl and toss to coat. Spread eggplant out on rimmed baking sheet; sprinkle with coarse kosher salt and pepper. Bake 12 minutes. Turn eggplant over and bake until soft, about 12 minutes longer.
- Heat 1 tablespoon oil in large deep skillet over medium-high heat. Add lamb patties and sauté until brown, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer lamb patties to plate. Add bell pepper strips to drippings in skillet; sauté until beginning to soften, about 4 minutes. Transfer bell pepper to plate with lamb.
- Reduce heat to medium. Add remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil and chopped onion to same skillet. Cover and cook until onion is soft, stirring occasionally, about 5 minutes. Add wine and garlic. Cook, scraping up browned bits, until wine is reduced to glaze, about 7 minutes. Return lamb and bell pepper to skillet; add eggplant, tomatoes, and marjoram. Reduce heat to medium-low. Cover and simmer until lamb is cooked through and vegetables are tender, about 12 minutes. If sauce is thin, simmer uncovered until thickened to desired consistency. Season sauce to taste with coarse salt and pepper.
- Polenta:
- Bring 4 cups water and 1 teaspoon salt to boil in heavy large saucepan over medium-high heat. Gradually whisk in polenta. Reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer until polenta is very thick, whisking often, about 20 minutes.
- Spoon polenta into shallow bowls. Top with lamb and vegetables. Sprinkle with pecorino cheese.
- Sold at some supermarkets and at natural foods stores and Italian markets. If unavailable, substitute an equal amount of regular yellow cornmeal and cook about half as long.

LAMB CHOPS WITH ROASTED VEGETABLES
Lamb and Rosemary - a perfect combination. And this dish never fails to please the meat-lovers! Please do not be put off by the amount of garlic.. roasting whole garlic cloves with the skin on.. it's a whole new flavour.. its got more of a sweetness to it rather than the usual pungency. Serve the garlic clove alongside the chops, squeeze the pulp out of the skin and spread over the meat...

Steps:
- Pre-heat the oven to gas mark 7/425°F/220°C.
- Pat dry the lamb chops and place them onto an oiled tray.
- Season the lamb with salt and pepper and drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle half of the chopped herbs and give it all a good toss.
- Pop the tray on the middle shelf of the oven for about 10-15 minutes, till you prepare the vegetables.
- To prepare the vegetables - peel and chop the carrots and parsnips in half lengthways.
- Peel and chop the potatoes in half lengthways and then cut each half into 4 wedges.
- With the onions, peel the skin off but do not slice them. Make cuts not all the way down to the roots but about 3/4 way - make cuts into eighths so what you have are onions slightly opened up like water lilies.
- Leave the garlic cloves whole with their skin on.
- Put all the chopped vegetables, onions and garlic cloves in a bowl.
- Add in the rest of the chopped herbs, season with salt and pepper and sprinkle in the oil and toss them well.
- Remove the chops from the oven, arrange the vegetables all around the meat and return the tray to high shelf of the oven and cook for a further 35 minutes or until both the meat and vegetables are tender.
- Remove them from the oven and cover the tray with foil to allow the meat to rest for about 20 minutes.
- Transfer the chops and vegetables onto a serving plate.
- Scrape and pour the remaining juices from the tray into a saucepan.
- Pour in the stock and let it simmer and bubble over medium heat for about 5 minutes.
- Pour the gravy into a jug and serve along with the lamb chops and vegetables.

OVEN FRIED EGGPLANT OR AND ZUCCHINI PARMESAN
I'm posting this recipe for eggplant and or zucchini. No need to peel the zucchini. I've also done both in one recipe. You can also just oven bake the eggplant and dip into sauce for appetizers. My husband and I just love it! Especially when the eggplant and zucchini is home grown! No buttermilk no problem just place 1 teaspoon lemon juice or vinegar in a 1 cup glass then top with milk let sit while gathering the rest of the ingredients.
