Patlican Kebabs with Garlic Yogurt & Lavash
Patlican means aubergine in Turkish, and these lamb and aubergine kebabs are a delicious way of enjoying this summer vegetable. Tender meatballs are grilled between chunks of spiced aubergine, then served with a garlicky yogurt sauce and plenty of warm lavash bread. The two lemony side salads help cut through the richness of the juicy kebabs and make it a lovely meal for a warm summer’s day!

Product Rating (3):
Absolutely delicious - aubergine was cooked so well, and in combination with the lamb was so nice. The beetroot salad was fab and there wasn’t a dud dish in the kit.
Absolutely yummy. All the flavours were tasty and even the salads were exciting. Was cautious about using honey as I don't have a sweet tooth but the flaour enhanced the food well. Thank you
We're so pleased to hear how much you enjoyed this box, Sharon - and that you were pleasantly surprised by the sweet addition of the honey!
Underwhelming kebabs, which were curiously much nicer cold the next day. Have made nicer with less effort. Beetroot salad and Garlic sauce were excellent, the remainder was forgettable.
So glad to hear you enjoyed the beetroot salad and the garlic sauce, Katie. We're very sorry you didn't like the kebabs as much (often heavily spiced meals will taste better the next day as the flavours have had more time to infuse the dish) - we'll take another look at this recipe!
