Waleed Asadi: Palestinian-style Moussaka | Vegetarian Slow-braised Eggplants in Tomato Sauce | مسقعة

May 24, 2026 | Moussaka is a dish enjoyed throughout the eastern Mediterranean. It has taken on so many different forms and styles as it has moved from region to region, but it is always made with eggplant [aubergine].

In the Levant, we have our own version, which also has its own regional touch. Today, I'm sharing the Palestinian version, or at least the version that was made in my home. It's completely vegetarian, served usually at room temp or cold. It’s another very simple dish to prepare. If you don't like eggplant, this one is a great way to re-introduce it. I hope you’ll love it.
