Mousaka -Greek Food



Well the recipe is almost similar with my last posting; 

Except the pasta base replaced with potatoes and eggplant slices.
For a 25 X 35 X 6 cm Baking dish size; 
  • Need 2-3 pieces eggplants in medium size 
  • 3 pcs medium size potatoes.

Directions before mixing all ingredients together in baking dish.
  • Wash clean the eggplants and slice it around 0,8 - 1 cm thick and bake in the oven around 180C, for 15-20 minutes until brown with olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper. 
  • Peel off the potatoes skin and slice around 0,8-1 cm thick and arrange it on the bottom of the baking dish, try to cover all the base without bake/fried it,  just add few drop olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper. 
  • After the eggplants ready from oven, arrange it on the baking dish on top of the potatoes. 
  • Then the 3rd layer minced beef with tomato sauce
  • The top the cream with cheese on top
After all ready, baked in the oven in 200C heat around 35-40 minutes, then removed from oven. Cool it around 15 minutes, if not it will really soft and liquid, a bit difficult to cut it.
Better serve after cooling down but not too cold, just until a bit hard; around 10-15 mnts.

Have a nice try, if having difficulty in the process don't hesitate to contact me!
