Cookbook:Moussaka (Bulgarian)

Moussaka is a Bulgarian minced meat dish, resembling a casserole. For the Greek version of this dish, see Greek Moussaka. This recipe is adapted from Ralitsa Roesing's kitchen. It's delicious with cold yogurt on the side.

Ingredients

 * Oil for cooking
 * 1 onion, finely chopped
 * ½ kg minced meat (usually pork in Bulgaria, but don't hesitate to experiment!)
 * 1 kg potatoes, peeled and finely chopped
 * 2 tomatoes, finely chopped
 * ⅓ cup parsley, finely chopped
 * 3 eggs, beaten
 * 1 cup yogurt
 * 2 spoonfuls flour
 * Salt
 * Pepper

Procedure

 * 1) Fry the onion and the minced meat in a little oil until the meat is cooked. The fattier the meat is, the less oil you need.
 * 2) Combine meat and onions with the potatoes, tomatoes, and parsley. Add salt and pepper to taste.
 * 3) Transfer to a baking dish. Bake for about 1 hour, or until the potatoes are cooked.
 * 4) Stir the eggs, the yogurt and the flour together and pour it over the dish. Bake for 10 more minutes.
