This is one of my family's favorite dishes.
Since I used a minimal amount of oil, it's on the lighter side.

I used a 28 x 21 x 5 cm heatproof dish in the picture.
Please adjust the baking time depending on your oven. The dish will be hot after microwaving, so please be careful.

Steps

1

Cut the eggplant including the skin into round slices about 1 cm thick. Preheat the oven to 190℃.
2

Peel the potatoes, and cut into 5 mm thick round slices. Transfer into a heatproof dish, cover with plastic wrap, and microwave for 3 minutes.
3

Making the meat sauce: Heat up a deep frying pan over medium heat, and add the olive oil. Sauté the garlic and onion until they become translucent.
4

Add the ground beef, and fry over medium-high heat while stirring with a wooden spatula for about 4-5 minutes.
5

Add in the ☆ ingredients, and mash the tomatoes with the wooden spatula. Add in the Step 1 potatoes, and simmer over medium heat to evaporate the liquid for about 10 minutes without a lid.
6

In the mean time, pierce the eggplant slices with a fork. Cover with plastic wrap, and microwave for about 3 minutes until they become soft.
7

Making the yogurt sauce: Add the plain yogurt, egg, Parmesan cheese, salt and pepper into a bowl, and mix with a whisk.
8

Taste the Step 5 meat sauce and adjust the flavour.
9

Spread out the potatoes and 1/2 of the meat sauce in the heatproof dish so that the surface is flat. Arrange the Step 6 eggplant, and spread out the remaining meat sauce on top.
10

Spread out the Step 7 yogurt sauce all over at the end, bake in the oven for about 30 minutes until it becomes golden brown.
