Stuffed Aubergines

Pre-heat

the oven to 190°C / 375°F (gas mark 5).

Halve

the aubergines lengthways and sprinkle with lemon

juice to stop them browning.
Lay

them in a dish and bake for 20 minutes in the oven (or

cover with microwaveable cling film and microwave for 10
minutes). Then, scoop out some of the flesh with a spoon.
Cut

the lamb into pieces and put these in the main bowl,

fitted with the main blade, along with the aubergine flesh,
shallots, garlic and parsley.
Use

the pulse button to chop everything, then add the

Worcestershire sauce via the feed tube, along with the salt
and pepper. After using the pulse button a few more times,
transfer the mixture to a frying pan in which the oil has been
heated and fry for a few minutes.
Fill

each aubergine shell with this stuffing, check the seasoning

and bake in the oven for 30 minutes.
Tip:

these aubergines can be served with a tomato coulis.
