How to make

This recipe is from an online blog. I followed the recipe exactly and it turned out excellent.

To make the tomato sauce, fry the onions and garlic briefly, then add the tomatoes and spices. Let it simmer a bit until it thickens.

Cut the eggplants into long slices and salt them, so they release their bitterness. Braise the eggplants, wrap the meatballs of the already seasoned mince in them and stick a toothpick to keep the ends of the eggplants together.

Pour the tomato sauce over them, cover with foil and bake at 390°F (200 °C) for 20 min., then remove the foil, sprinkle with cheese and finish baking until golden.
