Vegetable and Mushroom Moussaka
  1. Preparing the Eggplant Slice the eggplant into strips (5-6 mm thick). Salt them and let them rest for 10-15 minutes to remove the bitterness. Pat dry the excess moisture and arrange them on a baking sheet lined with oiled parchment paper. Drizzle with olive oil and bake at 180°C for about 30 minutes.
    250 Gram Eggplant
  2. Preparing the Vegetables Sauté the chopped onion in olive oil. After 2-3 minutes, add the coarsely chopped leek and grated carrot. Simmer for 10-15 minutes, adding a little water or vegetable broth if needed. Once the liquid evaporates, add mild crushed red pepper (bukovec) and sauté briefly with the mix.

  3. Preparing the Mushrooms In a separate pan over medium heat, sauté the mushrooms in olive oil for 15 minutes. Toward the end, season with salt, dried basil, and one minced garlic clove.

  4. Preparing the Potatoes Peel and slice the potatoes into thin rounds. Place them in a pot of boiling salted water. Boil for about 10 minutes until they soften but are still firm enough to hold their shape without falling apart.

  5. Preparing the Topping In a small bowl, mix 2 heaping tablespoons of sour cream with 30-40g of shredded cheese (Emental, Gouda, or similar) until it reaches a semi-liquid consistency.
    40 Gram Sour Cream
  6. Assembling the Moussaka Layer the ingredients in a baking dish in the following order: Bottom: Roasted eggplant strips. Second: The onion, leek, and carrot mix. (Optional: sprinkle a handful of crushed walnuts and fresh parsley here). Third: Sautéed mushrooms. Fourth: A generous layer of shredded white cow cheese (Feta-style). Top: Boiled potato slices brushed with the sour cream and cheese mixture. Drizzle with a little olive oil.
