Savory Meat and Rice Stuffed Eggplant Recipe

    Cuisine:

      I walked through this recipe in blind faith. Never have I parboiled rice before, nor have I omitted sauteeing the meat (turkey in my case) before making a stuffing. Mirj didn't let me down; it came out just fine. I added another 1/2 tsp. cumin, and a dash of cayenne to increase the spiciness of the dish. I think this recipe is worth the effort and recommend it.
