步驟 1
Heat olive oil in a saucepan, add the chopped onion, and sauté over medium heat for about 10 minutes until soft and golden.
步驟 2
Add 6 grated garlic cloves to the onions and warm through for a few seconds until fragrant.
步驟 3
Add 2 pounds of ground beef, season with salt and pepper, and cook for a few minutes until the pinkness is gone.
步驟 4
Drop in 2 bay leaves, 1/4 teaspoon of ground cinnamon, a pinch of red pepper flakes, 15 ounces of tomato sauce, and 1 cup of water. Stir well.
步驟 5
Bring the meat sauce to a boil, reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and let simmer for 25 minutes until thick.
材料清單
重要提醒
Patience is key: always wait about 2 hours after baking before slicing the moussaka to prevent it from turning into a soupy mess.
Salting eggplants draws out moisture and bitterness, allowing them to brown better and soak up less oil during frying.
The meat sauce can be prepared days in advance and refrigerated or frozen; this cuts assembly time in half.
For a lighter version, you can roast or air-fry the eggplant slices brushed with olive oil instead of pan-frying.
If planning to freeze the assembled moussaka, use a metal or disposable foil pan instead of ceramic or glass to avoid cracking due to thermal shock.
