Ok, what are you having for dinner tonight, because we’re having this: Kıymalı Patlıcan, Kabak ve Patates Yemeği, also known as Musakka (without the béchamel topping). Layers of roasted aubergines, courgettes and potatoes topped with a delicious tomatoey mince sauce. Feel free to swap the meaty mince for meatfree mince to keep it completely plant based - winner!
