This amazingly tasty dish comes from Greece. Moussaka has many variations. This option is meatless, but no less tasty.

Steps

30 min

1

Preheat the oven to 200 degrees. Cut the eggplants into thin slices. Place on a baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and salt.
2

Bake the eggplants for 20-25 minutes. Turn over once during baking.
3

Set one clove of garlic aside and finely chop the rest with a knife. Heat some olive oil in a frying pan. Add garlic.
4

Heat the garlic for about 30 seconds. Add Worcestershire, thick tomato sauce made from fresh tomatoes (I used Italian), but just finely chopped juicy tomatoes will also work. Add wine paste or pour in wine. Next is a mixture of herbs (dry Italian), ground cinnamon and a little sugar (a pinch).
5

Add lentils. If there is not enough liquid, add boiling water. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 20 minutes until the lentils are tender.
6

We collect Moussaka. Place tomato lentils in a baking dish. Then baked eggplants.
7

Spread Crème Fraîche, or very rich sour cream, on top. Distribute the aromatic cheese grated on a medium grater.
8

Bake in the oven under a preheated grill for about 6-10 minutes until the cheese is browned.
9

Ciabatta buns, cut lengthwise. Dry in a grill pan, or under the grill in the oven. Rub the crispy surface with the fresh cut of the reserved garlic. Serve with Moussaka.
