Mixed Vegetable Moussaka Recipe
Musakka is made with just eggplants actually. In this recipe I tried to enrich the traditional Turkish musakka recipe. I added some summer veggies such as potatoes and eggplants. I increased the amount of tomatoes. It's one of the best dishes we ate so far in this summer. I made an eggplant dish which will I also share in the coming days. I can't decide which one I liked most.
Musakka is a high calorie dish as the vegetables are deep fried but it's so so delicious that nobody cares it. You can just bake the vegetables with just spraying or brushing with oil but the taste would change too much. So I recommend not to change the recipe.
You can eat musaka together with plain yogurt or cacik.
