How to make it
- On the stovetop, sautee onions, garlic and oil till translucent and soft.
- Add the meat and brown--don't forget to season!
- Add the savory and tomatoes.
- If you are using whole potatoes, cut them into small or bite sized cubes.
- Add the cubed pottoes to the meat and cook with a little water (so the bottom does not burn) till the potatoes are done.
- Transfer to a oiled 8x8 (or square) baking dish, and add 1/2 C water.
- Bake uncovered at 350F for 45 mins.
- While the dish is baking prepare the top:
- Whisk the eggs, yogurt, milk, flour and salt--make sure there are no lumps. The consistency should be like a thick batter.
- When the 45 mins have past, pull the dish out of the oven. Pour the topping over the dish and place under the broiler for 5-7 mins till the top is brown and is cooked all the way thru. (Watch it so it doesn't burn!!)
- Remove from the oven/broiler and let sit for 10-15 mins then serve with yogurt as a garnish.
