1 pound lamb ; ground
1 cup parmesan cheese ; grated

1 cup white wine
1 medium onions ; chopped
4 teaspoons water

Season eggplant slices with salt and pepper, and let rest 1 hour. Cook the onion in butter, stir in lab meat and water, breaking up the meat with a fork as needed.

Add layer of meat and tomato mixture, and top with remaining eggplant slices. Stir beaten egg yolks and 2/3 of the parmesan cheese into the bechamel sauce. Spread sauce over the top of the eggplant and sprinkle with remaining parmesan. Bake at 180C (350F) for 45 minutes or until golden and bubbly. Serves 6 to 8.
