Preparing the eggplants:

If you buy eggplants that say they are without bitterness, you can skip the first step and go straight to the next step.

  1. Put the eggplant slices in a bowl, add the salt, cover with water, and boil for about an hour, so that the bitterness comes out of them.
  2. Wash well and dry gently with paper towels.
  3. Heat the oil for frying in a pan and fry the eggplant slices on both sides until golden.
  4. Absorb the excess oil with paper towels.

Meat preparation:

  3. When the meat gets a lighter color, add tomato paste, spices, and water.
  4. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat and cook on a gentle boil for at least half an hour

Preparation of the sauce:

  1. Melt the butter in a pot and add the flour and mix until you get a batter that separates from the sides of the pot.
  2. Add the milk and bring to a boil while constantly stirring preferably with a whisk.
  3. Add the cup of cottage cheese and mix with a whisk until a uniform and smooth mixture is formed.
  4. Continue cooking until the sauce thickens. Season, and add nutmeg if desired.
