Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Vegetables

    Wash and slice the eggplant and zucchini into thin rounds. Dice the onion and garlic, and chop the tomatoes into small pieces. Slice the potato into thin rounds as well.

Cooking

  1. 2

    Cook the Meat

    In a large pot, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the ground beef or lamb, and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spoon. Drain any excess fat.

  2. 3

    Add Vegetables

    Add the diced onion and garlic to the pot. Sauté until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes. Then, add the sliced eggplant, zucchini, and potato. Stir and cook for another 5-7 minutes until the vegetables start to soften.

  3. 4

    Season the Mixture

    Stir in the chopped tomatoes, cinnamon, oregano, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to combine all ingredients.

  4. 5

    Add Broth

    Pour in the broth and bring the mixture to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let it simmer for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Finishing Touches

  1. 6

    Serve the Stew

    Once the stew is thickened and flavors have melded, taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. If desired, sprinkle grated cheese on top before serving. Serve warm with crusty bread.
