Greek-Style Moussaka with Yogurt
This is one of my family's favorite dishes.
Since I used a minimal amount of oil, it's on the lighter side.
I used a 28 x 21 x 5 cm heatproof dish in the picture.
Please adjust the baking time depending on your oven. The dish will be hot after microwaving, so please be careful.
Topping moussaka with pizza cheese is also delicious. Recipe by SIVKO

Add in the ☆ ingredients, and mash the tomatoes with the wooden spatula. Add in the Step 1 potatoes, and simmer over medium heat to evaporate the liquid for about 10 minutes without a lid.

Greek Moussaka Greek Moussaka
I find Moussaka to be a small labor of love, but the result is definitely a crowd pleaser. This Greek version includes layers of potatoes, meat, and eggplant that are topped with a Béchamel (white) sauce. Each of the layers is separately cooked (hence the small labor) before being combined for the final baking. Enjoy this with a side Greek salad and a glass of wine. Opa!

This is a very filling meal! I only had 1 aubergine to use up but really could have used another so I wrote in the recipe to use 2, that way you'll be able to overlap the slices for better layers. The kids really enjoyed it too

Veggie Moussakas Veggie Moussakas
I met up with a friend in Kefalonia, and she asked me if I had a recipe for Moussaka with vegetables, it just so happens that I did, and to be honest I had never made this version. Last Sunday I took out my pots and pans and started working on it, and the end result was fabulous!!! It took me a bit longer to make than the usual time because there is a bit more work to be done. This is a much lighter version of the traditional Moussaka that has meat, and of course let’s not forget how much frying is involved. -
