The ingredients needed to make Eggplant Moussaka:
  1. Make ready large eggplants, sliced into thick pieces

Succulent, roasted (or grilled) eggplant is layered with a rich meaty tomato sauce made with ground lamb and a hint of cinnamon. This eggplant moussaka is the traditional way to prepare the dish, but not everyone loves eggplant so a zucchini variation is a delicious alternative. The epitome of Greek comfort food, moussaka is basically a hearty eggplant casserole with a juicy, flavor-packed meat sauce. Topping the meat is either a rich bechamel sauce- a French influence that was introduced later-or, as in today's Moussaka recipe, a cheese-based topping.

Instructions to make Eggplant Moussaka:
  1. Smear the eggplants with some salt. Heat oil in a pan and fry the eggplants till light golden brown on both sides. Drain and arrange on a baking dish.
  2. In the same oil fry the garlic till it changes colour. Add the onion and saute for 2 minutes. Now add the capsicum, tomato paste, tomatoes, salt and pepper. Cover and cook on a medium flame till it turns soft and the moisture dries up. Pour this sauce over the eggplants.
  3. Bake in a pre heated microwave oven at 180 degrees C for 7-8 minutes. Serve, garnished with coriander leaves, sesame seeds and chili flakes.
  4. Serve, garnished with coriander leaves, sesame seeds and chili flakes.

This is a good moussaka recipe but bland and a bit cumbersome. Trim off the ends of the eggplant. Cook, stirring, until onions are wilted. Add the meat and cook, chopping down with the edge of a heavy metal kitchen spoon to break up any lumps. Place the eggplant slices in a large bowl and cover with water.
