A comforting, slow-cooked classic featuring tender cuts braised in a rich, velvety reduction with root vegetables and fresh herbs.
Heat the olive oil in a heavy pot and brown the aubergine over medium-high heat, then set aside.
Add the minced lamb and cook, breaking it up, until browned.
Add the onion, peppers, garlic, and black pepper and fry for 5 minutes until softened.
Stir in the tomatoes and tomato paste, return the aubergine to the pot, cover, and cook gently for 30 minutes.
Season with salt and serve hot over rice.
