Ingredients
100g Quorn Meat Free Mince
1 medium onion, peeled and finely chopped
1 tbsp olive oil
2 cloves of garlic, peeled and crushed
150ml tomato passata
1 tbsp sun dried tomato paste
1 tsp dried oregano
2 tsp paprika
black pepper to taste
2 tbsp olive oil
1 large aubergine, sliced into 1cm slices
250g potatoes, sliced into 1cm slices
2 plum tomatoes, sliced into 1cm slices
150ml plain organic yoghurt
1 free range egg
1 tsp freshly grated nutmeg
50g vegetarian parmesan, finely grated
Method
Preheat your oven to 180C, grease four 7cm rosti rings or 4 deep ramekins or one medium pie dish
Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large frying pan, gently fry the onion until soft
Add the Quorn Meat Free Mince and lightly fry for a further 5 minutes until browned then add the garlic and fry for a further minute
Add the passata, sun dried tomato paste, oregano, paprika and freshly ground black pepper and simmer for 10 minutes
Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in another pan and gently fry the aubergine slices until browned on both sides. You may need to do this in two batches. If you use a non stick pan 2 tbsp oil should be enough
Lightly whisk the yoghurt, egg and nutmeg together
Place the greased rosti rings onto a lightly greased baking tray - place 2 aubergine slices in the bottom of each rosti ring, top with a layer of potato slices then a layer of tomatoes
Spoon in a layer of the Quorn Meat Free Mince mixture and press down
Place a layer of aubergines onto the mince, then a layer of tomato and finish with a layer of potatoes and press down
Pour in some of the yoghurt mixture, allowing it to trickle through any gaps in the potato layer then sprinkle with the grated cheese
Repeat with the other 3 rosti rings/ramekin
Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes or until browned on top
Loosen the moussaka with a knife around the rim of each rosti ring and use a spatula to lift them onto serving plates
Carefully remove the rings to serve with a selection of salads and a good white wine!
Please increase the cooking time by 10-15 minutes when made as a large dish.
