Slimmer's Moussaka

A delightful supper dish - when I served it, I never mentioned the word 'slimming' and my family really enjoyed it! See video for all the important techniques.

Method:

Aubergines

Place whole unpeeled and untrimmed aubergines in a large pot of boiling water.

Boil for 15 minutes with lid on.

Turn off heat and allow to stand for a further 5 minutes.

Allow to cool and slice into 3 mm rounds.

Adjust the oven rack to the middle position.

Preheat oven to 180 °C.

Sauté the onions in the olive oil until they are soft and wilted.

Add the mince and stir-fry while breaking it up with a fork.

Add Garlic Pepper Seasoning and stir through to flavour.

Add Tomato & Mushroom Pasta Sauce and stir through.

Add parsley.

Cook for 10 minutes.

Use a square ovenproof dish ± 25 cm x 25 cm or a rectangular dish 20 cm x 30 cm.

Spread 2 - 3 T (30 - 45 ml) of mince mixture over the bottom of the dish so that you don't have to grease it.

Pack half the aubergine slices in a single layer in the dish.

Season lightly with Seasoned Sea Salt.

Top with half the remaining mince mixture.

Repeat layering once more so that you finish off with a mince layer.

Topping

In a glass jug mix together the Reduced Fat Cheese Sauce, yoghurt and beaten eggs.

Pour over mince mixture and sprinkle over grated cheese.

Bake for 20 - 25 minutes.

Serve with a tossed salad dressed with our Reduced Oil Lime & Coriander Dressing.

Variation

Spice the mixture up with our Tomato, Olive & Chilli Pasta Sauce or for a very mild flavour use the Tomato & Basil Pasta Sauce in place of the Roast Mushroom Pasta Sauce.
