Lamb and Eggplant Moussaka Bake
Roasted eggplant layers and savory spiced lamb simmered in a rich tomato sauce, topped with a creamy, golden yogurt-parmesan crust.
INGREDIENTS
3 oz ground lamb
0.75 medium eggplant
0 tsp olive oil
0.25 cup yellow onion
1 clove garlic
0.5 cup tomato puree
0.25 tsp ground cinnamon
0.25 tsp dried oregano
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
0.25 cup non-fat Greek yogurt
1 large egg
1 tbsp parmesan cheese
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Slice the eggplant into half-inch thick rounds, brush both sides with olive oil, and roast for 15 minutes until softened.
While eggplant roasts, brown the ground lamb in a skillet over medium heat with the diced onion and minced garlic until the meat is fully cooked.
Stir the tomato puree, cinnamon, oregano, sea salt, and black pepper into the lamb mixture and simmer for 5 minutes.
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, egg, and parmesan cheese until the mixture is smooth.
In a small baking dish, layer half of the roasted eggplant, followed by the lamb mixture, and the remaining eggplant rounds.
Spread the yogurt mixture evenly over the top layer and bake for 20 minutes until the topping is set and turns a light golden color.
