Hungry Man Kitchen: Musakka: Eggplant Moussaka the Turkish Way

Apr 29, 2022 | Musakka is an eggplant-based (sometimes potato-based) dish, often containing ground lamb or beef and is common in the Middle East, Balkans and, of course, Turkey, with many local and regional variations.

While many versions, especially the Greek one, Moussaka, has a top layer made of béchamel sauce, Turkish musakka consists of sliced and fried eggplant served in a tomato-based meat sauce, warm or at room temperature. This dish is a classic in traditional Turkish cuisine and pair with it rice and yogurt (or better cacık). That's an addictive combination.
