The Man's Moussaka

There are many ways to do moussaka.

One could use lamb, beef, chicken, etc. We like to do it vegetarian- just with organic eggplants, potatoes, zucchini and tomato sauce with lentils.

One could then cook it in the form of a casserole or dish out as squares. The man has decided on his preferred presentation style. He did it as individual servings in the shape of an abalone.

I just thought that the result looked good on the plate. Definitely appetizing.

It's one of my favorite eats at home.

I love moussaka but it seems difficult to cook at home, is it?

I forgot to add. Your man is very talented in the kitchen. That is exactly how it is served in a Greek restaurant here.

sinlady: how abt sherpherd's pie and lasagna?

sinlady said...

i can do a mean shephard's/meat pie and awesome lasagna. i think i don't 'cure" the eggplant right for moussaka.

imp said...

sinlady: i know!!how about lightly pan-frying the eggplants first?

Dawn said...

She does :) But she loved the moussaka and she doesn't even usually like it.

Golly... your man must have been a 3 star michelin chef in his previous lifetime? Drool... (over the food and not the man as I am straight)..

"in the shape of an abalone"? haha, that's acute description (though pretty accurate going by the pic!)

imp said...

dawn: that's something! :))

cool insider: hHEHEHHEHE. he cooks to destress. it's almost like, the more stressed up he is at work, the better the food turns out during the weekends!

beanbean: i didn't know what else to describe it as! heheheh.
