Instructions

1. Bring a pot of salted water to boil over medium-high heat. Add the rice and cook for 18-20 minutes until tender. While the rice cooks, cut the bell peppers into bite-sized pieces, cut the leek into rings, and cut the eggplant into 1 cm thick slices. Sprinkle salt on the eggplant slices and let sit for 5 minutes, then pat dry and cut into pieces. Crumble the feta cheese and mix with a pinch of oregano. Mince the 2 garlic cloves.
2. Heat the oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add the minced beef and cook for 5 minutes, breaking it apart with a spoon, until browned and crumbly. Add the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute. Add the eggplant, leek, and bell pepper, and cook for 10 minutes over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until tender. Drain the rice and fold it into the pan with the feta cheese. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
