This lamb moussaka dish will serve four people, and makes a nice hearty meal served with a crisp salad. It's quicker than the traditional moussaka as you don't need to fry the aubergines or make a white sauce. It's also nice and healthy.

Step : You will need

  • 450 g lean lamb mince
  • 1 small onion, peeled and finely chopped
  • 1 large garlic clove, peeled and finely chopped
  • ¼ tsp ground cinnamon
  • 100 g sweetcorn
  • 400 g chopped tomatoes (can)
  • 1 tbsp tomato puree
  • 2 tbsp freshly chopped parsley
  • 450 g aubergines, thinly sliced lengthways
  • 200 g Greek yoghurt
  • 1 medium egg, beaten
  • 25 g Parmesan cheese, grated

Step 1: Prepare the ingredients

Preheat the oven to Gas mark 4, 180°C, 350°F. Heat a large non-stick frying pan and cook the mince, onion and garlic for 5-7 minutes. Add the cinnamon, sweet corn, chopped tomatoes, tomato purée and seasoning. Bring to the boil, reduce the heat and simmer for 10-15 minutes. Stir through the parsley.

Step 2: Prepare the moussaka

Arrange half the aubergines in the bottom of a large ovenproof dish and spoon over half the mince mixture. Repeat. Instead of making a white sauce in a small bowl mix together the yogurt, egg and seasoning and stir in half the Parmesan. Pour over the dish and sprinkle with the remaining cheese.

Step 3: Cook

Bake for 40 minutes or until brown.

Step 4: Serve

Serve with a nice crisp salad

    Did you notice when he was putting the eggplant slices into the casserole dish that one of them had a little label still stuck to it? It is one thing to criticize someone else, but I can tell you I did the same thing with an apple once. Even thought I had washed it and cut it into slices, I ate part of that little adhesive label they put on fruits and vegetables now before I noticed. I did find the remainder of it and removed it. Life gets a little dull if you can't laugh at yourself occasionally.
