Step 1
Toss eggplant chunks with 2 tbsp olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread on a sheet pan and roast at 425°F for 12 minutes until softened.
Step 2
Heat 1 tbsp oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Brown ground lamb, breaking it apart with a spoon, until no pink remains, ~6 minutes.
Step 3
Stir garlic and cumin-chili spice blend into the lamb, cooking until fragrant, ~1 minute. Add 2 tbsp water and simmer 2 minutes to meld flavors.
Step 4
Remove eggplant from oven. Toss with cooked lamb and return to sheet pan. Warm flatbread wrapped in foil alongside for 2 minutes.
Step 5
Toss red onion with sumac, parsley, 1 tbsp oil, and a pinch of salt to make the quick salad.
Step 6
Plate the lamb-eggplant mixture with warm flatbread and onion-sumac salad on the side. Serve immediately with garlic sauce if desired.
