Ingredients:


  • 800 g of aubergines;
  • 800 g of minced mutton or beef;
  • 300 g of tomatoes;
  • 1 onion;
  • 50 g of hard cheese;
  • 180 g of white dry wine;
  • olive oil for frying;
  • salt and pepper to taste.

For sauce:

  • 500 ml of milk;
  • 40 g of butter;
  • 30 g of flour;
  • 200 g of hard cheese;
  • 2 eggs;
  • salt and nutmeg to taste.

Preparation



Let's start with the sauce. In a frying pan, melt the butter and "fry" flour in it. In parallel, heat the milk a little (do not boil!). To make the sauce without lumps, milk and a mixture of butter and flour should be about the same temperature. Milk, stirring constantly, pour into the pan to oil and flour. Solim, add nutmeg. Bring to a boil, and then pour grated cheese. We continue to cook, remembering to stir until the cheese melts. Then we remove from the fire. While the mixture cools, in a separate bowl we beat the eggs. After that, slowly pour them into the sauce, thoroughly mixing. The sauce is ready.

Onions for moussaki need to be cut into half rings, remove the peel from tomatoes and chop them into cubes. Eggplants cut thin oblong slices (do not forget to soak them in salted water!) And fry in olive oil on both sides. After frying, they should be put on paper towels to absorb excess fat. You also need to fry the onions (until soft) and stuffing. In the middle of frying in onions and minced meat pour in the wine and cook until the liquid evaporates. After that, add the tomatoes, salt, pepper and stew for a few more minutes.

Now collect the moussaka: in the baking dish, lay the eggplant and minced meat so that the eggplants are on top. Fill all sauce and sprinkle with grated cheese. We send it to the oven, heated to 180 ° C, for 30-40 minutes.
