My take on Moussaka

For two people you will need:
  • 1 Onion
  • Garlic to your liking, I used 3 cloves
  • 500g minced lamb (minced beef works well too)
  • 1 can crushed tomatoes
  • Herbs ( I used Basil, Thyme, Rosemary, Oregano and Parsley)
  • Salt&Pepper 
  • 1 dl beef stock
  • Oil

  • 2 TBS plain flour
  • 1 Egg
  • 1 TBS Butter
  • 2 dl Milk
  • 3 potatoes
  • Wanted amount of cheese
 


Start by boiling your potatoes if you're not using yesterdays leftovers as i did.  Heat garlic and onion until the onion is soft.

Add the meat

When the meat is done add tomatoes, stock and spices (including salt and pepper, easily forgotten!) Let it simmer on a low heat for 30 min.

In another pan melt the butter. When it's all melted add the flour and whisk in the milk. When the sauce is at wanted consistency add the egg while whisking. Salt and Pepper to taste. Slice the potatoes and put the slices in the bottom of your ovenproof dish (tray?) pour the sauce over and finish with the meat. Cheese on top.Cook in the oven at 200 degrees (centigrade) for 25-30 min depending on your oven.

I was planning on taking pictures of the leftovers the day after in a more appealing light, but managed to quickly take a picture before my boyfriend ate the last of it. I'll take that as a compliment! (-: Enjoy
