Serves 6
A delicious summer dish
4 large eggplants (aubergines) sliced 1 cm thick
4 large potatoes sliced 1 cm thick
2 large zucchines sliced lengthwise 1/2 cm thick
salt and pepper
oil for frying
750 g minced lamb
2 large onions, chopped
3 garlic cloves, crashed
60 g of plain four
425 g caned tomatoes, crushed
1/2 teaspoon dried mixed herbs
dry breadcrums
3 tablespoons chopped parsley
50 g butter
400 g milk
200 g Cheddar cheese, grated
Sprinkle the eggplants with salt and let stand in a strainer for 30 minutes to drain off any liquid.
Heat some oil in a frying pan and fry the eggplants a few at a time for 1 to 2 minutes on each side. Remove from the pan and put on one side.
Eggplants absorb a great deal of oil when fried, use only a little at a time.
In a large saucepan boil 15 cups water on high heat and add sliced potatoes. Blanch for 5 minutes. Remove and put on one side to drain. Using the same water bring to boil and this time add zucchines and blanch for 2 minutes. Remove and put on one side to drain.
In a saucepan add one tablespoon of oil to heat and fry the mince for 5 minutes. Add chopped onion, crashed garlic and cook for another 5 minutes. Blend in 30 g of the flour, the can of tomatoes, herbs and some seasoning and bring to boil, stirring.
Lightly grease an ovenproof 7 to 8 cm deep casserole and arrange a layer of potatoes a layer of eggplants and a layer of zucchines. Add some mince on top and repeat until you use all remaining sliced vegetables. Cover them with the rest of the mince.
Melt butter in a pan, add the remaining flour and cook for a minute. Gradually stir in milk and bring to boil stirring all the time. Remove from heat and stir in the cheese and some seasoning. When the cheese has melted, pour the sauce over the mince to cover the entire surface. Cook moussaka, uncovered, in a moderately hot oven, 180C for 45 to 60 minutes.
