A middle-eastern approach to eggplant and mushrooms. A recipe loaded with umami flavors that will fill you up. You can add some spices such as clove or rosemary to add an additional boost to the dish. You can also substitute beef with ground lamb for a tastier result. Or, roast the eggplant in the oven for 20 minutes before adding the meat filling and then roast it again for another 5 minutes to create a great texture without the smoky flavor.
Salt and pepper to taste
2 tbsp Extra virgin Olive Oil
15 ounces oyster mushroom
8 ounces ground beef
4 cloves garlic
2 tsp cumin
(1 tbsp) hoisin sauce
1 oz Parsley leaves
(3 tbsp) greek yogurt

Serve this dish as an appetizer. It would be lovely before serving this Pot Roast. The spices will excite your palate before you digging into the savory meat dish.These spicy vegetable fritters would pair wonderfully with a dry and fruity rosé. If you have a red wine you like best, try this recipe with the rosé version. But, our suggestion is to lean towards a heavier rosé, one made from a heavy red grape.

Classic Moussaka is an eggplant or potato-based dish with ground meat, a staple of Mediterranean cuisine. Instead of using beef, lamb meat was used to add more umami flavor and to create a deeper flavor profile for this dish.
You can also add some fresh dill or thyme to add more aroma to the dish. Oregano would also be nice.
