Description

Classic Greek moussaka gets a lighter makeover in this simple recipe.

Method

Step 1 of 4

Pre-heat the oven to 180°C/160°C fan-forced. In a large bowl, toss the eggplant slices in half of the oil and lay them out on baking trays in a single layer. Roast for 10-12 minutes to soften.

Step 2 of 4

Heat the rest of the oil in a large pan on medium high heat and cook the lamb mince for 5 minutes, add the onions and cook for 5-7 minutes, add the garlic and oregano and cook for 2 minutes. Pour over the chopped tomatoes and basil, reduce the heat and simmer for 10 minutes.

Step 3 of 4

Mix the yoghurt, eggs and 3 tablespoons of parmesan together in a medium bowl. In a large ovenproof dish, spread a layer of lamb sauce and top with a layer of sliced eggplants. Repeat and top with the egg and yoghurt mix. Sprinkle with the remaining parmesan.

Step 4 of 4

Bake for 15 minutes until golden and bubbling.
