Make and share this Pastitsio – Cypriot Baked Pasta recipe from Food.com.
from “Falling Cloudberries” by Tessa Kiros In the book, the recipe description reads: “This is so simple. It’s a very typical Cipriot all-in-one meal–you just need the time to prepare the lamb and vegetables, then you can fling it in the oven, go out for a (Greek) coffee, and come home to a ready meal. You could use lamb chops and leave them whole instead of cutting them into chunks, which makes it even simpler. And it doesn’t need much by way of accompaniments–perhaps a salad or some simply sauteed vegetables.”

Not for the faint hearted, these SPICY aubergines are stuffed with lentils, making them a wonderful vegetarian main meal or appetiser. You can add minced meat (ground beef) if you wish, but I find that the Puy Lentils used in this dish have quite enough “body” already! These are based on a Turkish recipe called Imam Bayildi – but I have “pepped” them up a bit by adding Cayenne pepper, chili & the lentils! Do not forget the essential finishing touch – the minted cumin yoghurt, it “cuts” through the heat of the cayenne pepper. Serve these with a crispy salad and crusty bread.
