Ingredients
- 50 g cubed meat
- 1 medium roasted eggplant
- 60 g yogurt
- 3 cloves garlic
Method
- Peel and mash the roasted eggplant into a smooth pulp, then combine it thoroughly with the yogurt and minced garlic to create the classic ali nazik base.
- Season the eggplant and yogurt mixture with salt to taste, then spread it evenly across a serving plate.
- In a heavy pan over medium-high heat, sear the cubed meat for approximately 8 to 10 minutes, turning occasionally, until browned on all sides and cooked through.
- Spoon the seared cubed meat directly over the eggplant and yogurt base on the plate.
- Allow the dish to rest for 2 to 3 minutes so the warm meat gently warms the eggplant layer beneath before serving.
