Baking is a method of preparing food that uses dry heat, normally in an oven
Baking is a method of preparing food that uses dry heat, normally in an oven, but can also be done in hot ashes, or on hot stones. The most common baked item is bread but many other types of foods are baked. Heat is gradually transferred "from the surface of cakes, cookies, and breads to their center. As heat travels through, it transforms batters and doughs into baked goods and more with a firm dry crust and a softer centre". The art of baking remains a fundamental skill and is important for nutrition, as baked goods, especially breads, are a common and important food, both from an economic and cultural point of view. A person who prepares baked goods as a profession is called a baker.

The spiced mince (ground) beef in this dish is intriguing. I think its the combination of allspice with Scotch bonnet chilli which does the trick. The whipped feta adds a lovely tangy taste which contrasts with 'hidden honey/maple syrup' on the aubergine. The quantities given for the beef serve...
