by Akhtar Nawab
View ProfileThis lamb moussaka from Chef Akhtar is both traditional and unlike anything you've ever tasted. The Greek version of lasagna, it features layer upon layer of seared tender eggplant, creamy béchamel sauce, and perfectly seasoned ground lamb. Served alongside a small Greek kale salad, this dish is warm and comforting without feeling too heavy.
