1
Boil the potatoes in salted water for about 15 minutes, drain and rinse with cold water. Peel and cut into chunks.

Wash the aubergines and cut into slices about 1 cm thick. Spread out on a board, season with salt and set aside for about 20 minutes. Peel, halve and finely dice the onion. Peel and finely chop the garlic.
3
Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a saucepan and fry the minced meat over a high heat for 5 minutes until browned and crumbly. Add the diced onion and garlic and fry for another 2 minutes. Add the tomato paste and mix well. Add the peeled tomatoes and season with the Ground Meat Seasoning. Wash the rosemary, chop finely and stir through. Bring the meat sauce to a boil and simmer over a gentle heat for 50 minutes.
4
Preheat the oven to 200°C (top/bottom heat).
5
Pat the aubergines dry well and heat the remaining olive oil in a large frying pan before frying the aubergines over a high heat for 2 minutes on both sides. Drain the aubergines afterwards on a paper towel.
6
For the béchamel sauce, heat the butter in a saucepan. Add the flour and mix well. Pour in the milk slowly and bring to the boil, stirring. Season with salt and simmer over a low heat for about 4 minutes. Remove from the heat and add the egg while stirring.
7
Spread the potatoes on the bottom of a baking dish. Place the aubergine slices on top. Spread the meat sauce on top and sprinkle with a little Parmesan. Spread the entire béchamel sauce over the top. Sprinkle with the remaining Parmesan and bake in the oven for 45 minutes until golden brown.
