Amazingly Tasty Eggplant Recipes You Should Try

3. Moussaka

This eggplant casserole is similar to lasagna, but it features slices of eggplant and potatoes in place of lasagna noodles. To make this layered dish, slice a large eggplant lengthwise and roast with salt and olive oil. In a separate pan, make a spiced ragù using onions, ground beef, oregano, cinnamon, nutmeg, paprika, and red wine. While the ragù is cooking, boil thin slices of peeled potatoes until tender.

In a casserole dish, layer the ragù, eggplant, and potato slices until you run out of the ingredients. Top the dish with a cheese mixture of feta and mozzarella. Bake for about 20 minutes, or until cheese is brown and bubbly.
