Beef and Potato Moussaka
Description
Moussaka is a traditional Greek dish. Here we have a Bulgarian version of this classic. This hearty and comforting dish is perfect for a family dinner or special occasion and is sure to become a favorite in any household.
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- 2 pounds potatos
- 1 onion
- 2 carrots
- 1 can diced tomatoes
- 2 garlic cloves (minced)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 eggs
- 2 cups greek yoghurt
- 1 tablespoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- Salt and pepper
Instructions
Peel and dice the onion, carrots, and potatoes.
Heat up the oil in a large pot. Add the onion and carrot cook until they soften, then add the beef.
- When the beef is browned add the tomatoes (you can add a pinch of sugar as sugar cuts the acidity of the tomatoes and creates a more balanced flavor).
Add the potatoes and enough water to cover them (around 2 cups).
While waiting on the potatoes to cook preheat the oven to 400F/200C. In a bowl mix the eggs and yoghurt.
When the potatoes are cooked transfer the moussaka to a baking dish. Bake until the water evaporates.
Pour the yoghurt mixture on top and bake until golden.
Serve hot topped with more yoghurt. Enjoy!
