A filling main course where layers of fried eggplant slices and an onion-and-ground-meat filling are baked in a tomato sauce. This Turkish-style musakka makes a complete meal alongside rice and cacık.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Prepare the eggplants

15 min

Soak the eggplant slices in salted water for 15 minutes, then pat dry and fry in hot oil, or soften them in the oven.

2

Sauté the ground meat

10 min

Sauté the onion in a pan and add the ground meat; once the liquid evaporates, stir in the garlic and pepper and cook briefly.

3

Layer

6 min

Layer the eggplant and the meat mixture alternately in a baking dish.

4

Bake with the sauce

25 min

Mix the grated tomato, tomato paste, hot water, salt, and black pepper, pour it over the top, and bake in a preheated 200-degree oven until the sauce thickens and the top browns.

Reminder

Important: Soak the eggplants in salted water to remove bitterness and dry them thoroughly. Layer the moussaka and pour the tomato sauce over it so all the ingredients meld together in flavor while baking. Contains ground meat.

Editor's Note Editörün Notu

If you cook the eggplants in the oven with a little oil instead of frying them, the musakka becomes much lighter; both methods are tasty, the choice is yours.
