15 minutes
30 minutes

Ingredients

  • 2 brinjals (about 400g), sliced in half lengthways
  • 1 chorizo sausage, chopped
  • 200 g bacon, chopped
  • 2 chillies, chopped
  • 4 cloves garlic, crushed
  • 2 T olive oil
  • 1½ cups Greek yoghurt
  • 500 g lasagne sheets, cooked
  • Coriander, to garnish
  • Mint leaves, to garnish

Method

Preheat the oven to 200ºC.

Place the brinjal on a baking tray and top with the sausage, bacon, chilli and garlic. Drizzle with olive oil. Roast for 20 minutes, tossing now and again to keep all the ingredients moistened.
