I really loved the challenge this week - it inspired me to cook something I haven't cooked in a long time and also to spend more time in the kitchen than I have been lately and I really enjoyed it!
My mum was born in Malta and she would cook Maltese dishes fairly regularly when I was growing up. One of my favourite dishes that she made (and that I regularly make) is a pasta sauce, but I already used that in a previous challenge (admittedly about six years ago!) where the theme of the week was Italian - you can see the recipe here.
Anyway, one of my mum's favourite dishes to cook is stuffed aubergines with Maltese style potatoes (in Maltese: bringiel mimli bil-patata fil-forn). And I think it is pretty yummy too and it brings back fond memories of my youth. :) My recipe is cobbled together from my memories of how she used to cook it and from a couple of Maltese cookbooks.
This serves 2 people, very generously (which is the Maltese way...)
( Under a cut... this ones a bit of a long one. )
