Step by Step guide
Step 1
Wash the eggplants and cut them into slices about 1–1.5 cm thick. Sprinkle with salt and let sit for 20-25 minutes. Drain the resulting juice, then pat the eggplants dry with a paper towel.
Step 2
Chop the onion. Add half of it to the ground meat, season with salt and pepper.
Step 3
Now prepare the sauce: scald the tomatoes with boiling water, peel them, and chop into small cubes along with the bell pepper. Sauté the remaining onion in vegetable oil for 3 minutes. Add the previously chopped tomatoes and bell pepper. Simmer for another 7 minutes. Add the tomato juice, season with salt and pepper, and bring the sauce to a boil. Add dried mint, oregano, finely chopped parsley, and simmer for another 3 minutes.
Step 4
Stuff the eggplant rings, place them in a pre-greased baking dish, and pour the prepared sauce over them.
Step 5
Bake in the oven at 356°F for about 45 minutes.
Step 6
Remove the dish from the oven, sprinkle it with green onion and garlic...
