Steps to make Moussaka for the lazy:
- Sauté the mince and the finely chopped onion in a medium sized pot with a bit of water, deglaze with the wine, add 3 tbsp oil, the tomato, salt and pepper and boil for about half an hour on low heat. When it is ready, crumble the feta cheese in the pot.
- Oil a medium sized deep baking tray. Layer the potatoes cut into slices (about 1 cm thick).
- Wash the eggplants, salt them, cut them into strips and layer them on the tray over the potatoes.
- Cover the tray with aluminum foil and place in a hot oven for about half an hour (or until the potatoes are tender).
- Take the tray off the oven and spread the mince mix on top.
- In the same pot (after rinsing it a bit, of course) prepare the bechamel. Melt the butter over low heat (take care that it doesn't brown!!!) and add the flour, whisking constantly.
- When the ingredients combine add the milk while cold, raise the heat and whisk until it thickens.
- Remove from heat, add the spices and the egg yolks dissolved in 2 tbsp milk and spread in the baking tray, over the rest of the ingredients.
- Bake the moussaka until the bechamel is golden brown.
