I love Moussaka and I love it with just Eggplant like that. I'm pretty sure that is how my Papou made it.
One of absolute favourite dishes!! Yum. Thank you.
I love your cooking videos but I wish you (and your helper) would tie back your long hair while cooking. The sight of it untied really turns me off. Yuck!
I have been making Moussaka for years and mispronouncing it as well. I love the idea of broiling the eggplant. Will try method for sure.
Potatoes?
It's like a lasagne
How much beef broth?
Eggplant 🍆 😋
I Must try your recipe. Looks So very Deli. TY
I have made this dish once . The recipe I used called for a layer of potatoes on the bottom. Very delicious.
