- 1 large Aubergine
- 150g Greek Yogurt
- 1 beaten Egg
- 3 tbs Parmesan
- 400g Tomato
- 4 tbs Tomato Puree

Method
- Heat the grill to high. Brown the beef in a deep ovenproof frying pan over a high heat for 5 mins. Meanwhile, prick the aubergine with a fork, then microwave on High for 3-5 mins until soft. Mix the yogurt, egg and parmesan together, then add a little seasoning.
