A meat-free take on the Greek oven classic: tender potato slices, a richly spiced ragout of aubergine and sunflower mince with cinnamon and smoked paprika, topped with a feta béchamel. Served with a homemade tomato sugo.

Method

  1. Vegetarian moussaka, step 1: Potatoes

    Potatoes

    Briefly rinse the potato slices, then cook in simmering salted water for approx. 10 mins until tender. Drain.

  2. Vegetarian moussaka, step 2: Aubergine ragout

    Aubergine ragout

    Heat half the rapeseed oil in a wide frying pan, lightly fry the sunflower mince for approx. 2 mins, then remove. Heat the remaining rapeseed oil in the same pan and fry the aubergine for approx. 5 mins. Add the olive oil, shallot and garlic and sweat for approx. 2 mins. Briefly stir in the tomato purée, then deglaze with the red wine. Add the water, stock, all the tomatoes and the spices, season and simmer for approx. 15 mins. Stir in the cornflour, add the sunflower mince and simmer for a further approx. 5 mins.

  3. Vegetarian moussaka, step 3: Tomato sugo

    Tomato sugo

    Heat the oil in a small saucepan. Sweat the shallot, garlic, carrot and celery for approx. 3 mins. Briefly stir in the tomato purée, then deglaze with the red wine. Add the polpa, water, thyme and sugar, cover and simmer over a low heat for approx. 20 mins. Blend until smooth, adding a little water if needed, and season.

  4. Vegetarian moussaka, step 4: Béchamel

    Béchamel

    Melt the butter in a small saucepan, add the flour and cook, stirring, for approx. 1 min. Pour in the milk, whisk until smooth and bring to the boil. Add the salt and nutmeg and simmer, stirring, for approx. 3 mins. Leave to cool slightly, then stir in the egg and feta. Preheat the oven to 180°C (fan 175°C).

  5. Vegetarian moussaka, step 5: Layering and baking

    Layering and baking

    Grease a small gratin dish (approx. 15 × 20 cm) with the oil. Spread the potatoes in the dish, top with the aubergine ragout, pour over the béchamel and smooth the surface. Scatter over the feta. Bake in the middle of the oven for approx. 35 mins until golden brown on top. Leave to rest briefly.

  6. Vegetarian moussaka, step 6: Serving

    Serving

    Reheat the tomato sugo. Cut the moussaka into portions and serve on plates with the sugo.
