Casserole a la Bulgarian Moussaka

by Editorial Staff

A variation on the Bulgarian moussaka theme with a spicy meat sauce cooked in broth, tomato paste, vinegar, garlic, soy sauce and spices. I safely recommend using this sauce in other dishes, with other side dishes.

Cook: 1 hour

Servings: 3

Ingredients

  • Potatoes – 600 g (peeled)
  • Minced meat (any) – 250 g
  • Onions – 2-3 small onions
  • Garlic – 4 cloves or to taste
  • Broth (any) – 300 ml
  • Cheese (hard or semi-hard) – 100 g
  • Flour – 1 tablespoon.
  • Tomato paste – 1 teaspoon
  • Soy sauce to taste
  • Vinegar (wine or apple cider) – to taste
  • Thyme (dried) – to taste
  • Black pepper – to taste
  • Butter – for frying
  • Salt to taste

Directions

  1. Cut 600 grams of peeled potatoes into small cubes. Boil the potatoes for 10 minutes in salted water. After that we drain the water.
  2. We need 250 g of any minced meat. We have homemade (not purchased) chicken fillet. We put the chopped fillets in a blender (do not salt) and make minced meat.
  3. Cut the onions (I have 3 small onions) into small cubes.
  4. Rub a few cloves of garlic (I have 4 pieces) on a fine grater.
  5. Fry the minced meat in a frying pan in butter, breaking the lumps. Simultaneously heat 300 ml of any broth. I add onions when all the excess juice has melted out of the minced meat. You can fry the minced meat and onions in a different order.
  6. When the minced meat and onions are fried, add the garlic. We mix. Add a tablespoon of flour. We mix.
  7. Pour in hot broth. We reduce the fire.
  8. Add a teaspoon of tomato paste. We mix.
  9. Simmer over low heat for 10-15 minutes. Add more broth if necessary.
  10. Add soy sauce to taste. He will play the role of salt. Add a little wine or apple cider vinegar, a little dry thyme and black pepper. We mix.
  11. Preheat the oven to 200 degrees. While the minced meat is stewing, rub 100 g of any of your favorite cheese to sprinkle the casserole on top.
  12. Put the minced meat in a baking dish.
  13. Put the potatoes on top.
  14. And sprinkle with cheese.
  15. We bake for 20 minutes. Bon appetit and don’t be afraid to experiment!
