2 teaspoons salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper

  • Wash the eggplants very well and cut them in 2 pieces. Carve them crosswise and set them in a baking tray with the skin facing down and the carved flesh up. Preheat the oven at 180 ˚C or 350 ˚F. Drizzle the eggplants with olive oil and season them with salt and pepper. Bake for 20 to 30 min or until the flesh is soft.
  • In the meantime prepare the meat sauce and heat 3 tablespoons of olive oil in a large casserole dish. Add the onion and when soft add the beef and the garlic. Break up the meat with a wooden fork until it has a loose texture. Add the wine and let it cook for 7 minutes. Add cinnamon, chopped tomatoes, oregano and salt and pepper to the casserole. Reduce the heat and simmer for approximately 40 minutes.
  • Prepare the béchamel sauce for the Papoutsakia. Use a large pan to melt the butter over low-medium heat. Add the flour whisking continuously to make a paste. Add the milk all at once, keep whisking in order to prevent your sauce from getting lumpy. If the sauce still needs to thicken, boil over low heat while continuing to stir. Remove the pan from the stove, season with salt, pepper and a pinch of nutmeg. Continue whisking and stir in the eggs. Whisk quickly, in order to prevent the eggs from turning into an omelet!
  • Heat the oven to 350˚F. Put eggplant shells cut side up in a baking sheet. Sprinkle the shells with the cheese, fill each of them with the meat sauce and add some cheese again. Spoon béchamel on top and sprinkle with remaining cheese. Bake until eggplants are tender, about 20 minutes. Increase heat to broil and cook until the béchamel is golden brown.
