Peel the potatoes and cut them into slices 1 cm thick. Poach them for ± 4 min. in salted water.
Remove the potatoes from the water and drain them.

Melt the butter (50 g) and add the flour (60 g). Let it draw together well and add the milk to it little by little. Let this simmer for a while, and season with nutmeg, pepper and salt.

Cut the aubergines into slices, season them and fry them briefly on both sides in a pan with olive oil.

Take an ovenproof dish and coat the bottom with a layer of bechamel.
Then place the potato slices on top of it and arrange the Turkey meatballs on top of the potatoes.
Cover with a layer of the tomato sauce.
Then put on another layer of potatoes and cover with bechamel.
Place the fried aubergines on the bechamel and sprinkle with sheep’s cheese.
