Cut the lamb leg meat into bite-sized cubes. Dice the eggplant, onion, and tomato. Mince the garlic.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large, deep skillet or pot over medium-high heat. Add the lamb cubes and brown them on all sides for about 5-6 minutes. Remove the lamb and set aside.
Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil to the same pot. Add the diced onion and cook for 2-3 minutes until softened. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another 1 minute.
Add the diced eggplant to the pot and sauté for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the eggplant begins to soften.
Stir in the diced tomato, ground cumin, ground coriander, salt, and black pepper. Cook for 2 minutes until the spices are fragrant.
Add the rice to the pot and stir well to coat the grains with the oil and spices.
Return the browned lamb to the pot. Pour in the vegetable broth and bring to a boil.
Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and simmer for 20-25 minutes, or until the rice is tender and the liquid is absorbed.
Remove from heat and let the pilaf rest, covered, for 5 minutes. Fluff the rice with a fork.
Stir in the chopped mint just before serving. Serve hot and enjoy your Mediterranean Lamb and Eggplant Pilaf.
