Wskazówki

1. Heat oil in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add ground lamb, onion and garlic. Cook, stirring and breaking up the meat with a wooden spoon, until the meat is no longer pink, 3 to 5 minutes.

2. Add eggplant, and cook, stirring occasionally, until the eggplant is starting to soften, 5 to 7 minutes.

3. Add bulgur, chili powder, paprika, cumin, cinnamon, allspice and salt and cook, stirring, until aromatic, 30 seconds to 1 minute.

4. Stir in tomatoes and beans.

5. Add water and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to a simmer, partially cover the pot and cook, stirring occasionally, until the liquid is reduced and thickened and the bulgur is tender, about 50 minutes.

Notatki

OK. Not the most exciting chili... Probably wouldn't make again unless I had extra ground lamb I didn't know what to do with.
