  1. Prepare the meat sauce:
  2. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium high heat.  Add ground beef and brown for about 10 to 12 minutes.

  7. Turn off heat.  Mix in lemon juice.  Set sauce aside.
  8. Peel eggplants.  Slice off top and bottom. Slice into 1/4″ rounds.  Line a broiler pan with foil.  Brush with olive oil  Broil eggplant slices 3 to 4 minutes.  Turn and broil 2 to 3 minutes longer until browned. Remove from pan and set aside. You will be doing this in 3 to 4 batches.
  9. Wash potatoes.  No need to peel if using yellow or red potatoes.  Cut into 1/4″ slices.  Boil in salted water for 5 to 8 minutes; you don’t want them soft, just semi done.  Drain and set aside.
