Cooking method

Cooking time: 1 h 10 min

We take eggplants and wash them, peel them. Then we cut them lengthwise into plates. We salt the eggplants and let them stand at room temperature so that the bitterness goes away. This time we will be engaged in the preparation of minced meat. In the best traditions, it is best to use finely chopped veal minced meat.
Minced meat should be salted and peppered, and eggplants in the meantime should be lightly fried in vegetable oil. We spread the minced meat on a layer of eggplants, and then we spread the eggplant layer on the minced meat again and minced meat again. With a low capacity, one layer of eggplant and minced meat is quite enough. Pour all the cream. Add a little tomato juice or canned tomatoes, and put the cheese on top in one layer, pre-sliced into thin slices. Next, bake the moussaka in the oven until ready. The food is ready for the meal!
Cuban moussaka is served hot, cut into portions, with herbs, adjika and black bread. Bon appetit!
