Ingredients
Method
Prepare the Eggplants
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Cut the eggplants in half lengthwise and scoop out the insides, leaving a 1/2-inch shell.
- Sprinkle the insides with salt and let them sit for 10 minutes to draw out moisture.
Make the Filling
- In a skillet, heat some oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic, and sauté until translucent.
- Add the ground beef and cook until browned. Stir in the scooped eggplant flesh, tomato sauce, oregano, basil, salt, and pepper. Cook for another 5 minutes.
Stuff and Bake
- Fill the eggplant halves with the meat mixture and place them in a baking dish.
- Top with shredded cheese and bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, until the eggplants are tender and the cheese is bubbly.
