Lamb-Stuffed Eggplants Twist

Halved eggplants scored without piercing skin to hold the juices. Lamb braised, shredded, replaced by veal shoulder for softer texture. Shallots replace onion green for sweeter notes. Fresh mint swaps coriander; kale sprouts substitute mustard shoots. Feta swapped with crumbly goat cheese adding tang. Cooked on stovetop then finished in oven until golden, tender and aromatic. Seasoned but not overloaded; salt balanced carefully because cheese brings saltiness. Visual cues essential: skin glossy, flesh soft but intact. A warm rich meat topping contrasting creamy cheese, bright herbs, and slight bitterness from kale sprouts.
