Notes

For a lighter option, try using ground chicken or turkey instead of lamb or beef. You can substitute fresh herbs with dried ones (1 tsp dried herbs for 2 tbsp fresh). If you don’t have grated tomatoes, canned crushed tomatoes work well too. This dish stores beautifully in the fridge for up to 3 days or can be frozen (omit eggs before freezing). Don’t rush the simmering process for the sauce; it helps develop flavors for a richer dish. Add a drizzle of olive oil and a side of green olives for a beautiful presentation. Enjoy cooking!
