      We gave this a go and found the potato and eggplant were undercooked despite following the longer cook times. The cheese and meat sauce were delicious however

        Hi Adaire, all ovens are different so you may need to try cooking it a little longer (until the vegetables are cooked through). Also you may like to slice the vegetables a little thinner if you prefer.

        Yes! Us too! I tried this tonight and the potatoes were still crunchy and raw even after 50 minutes. They were very thinly sliced too. Wonder what went wrong.

      Thank you so much for your great recipes and inspiration.
      Can I please ask if you are able to change the solid colour block where your recipe titles are? I print a lot of your recipes and it uses a lot of ink due to that block of dark colour at the top.

      I have tried a few thermomix moussaka recipes. My ratings are always based on how close the recipe is to my originl, old school method recipes. This recipe is actually better than my original. Absolutely delicious and makes enough to feed a crowd. Thank you!

      This is my second time making this. I use plant based ‘mince’ and used two eggplants this time. Such a lovely dish.

      This looks delicious. If I want to make it vegetarian I just leave out the lamb mince right. I love your recipes. I live in Australia.

        Hi Gail. I am living in Greece. Moussaka is a very popular dish. Often I replace the meet with mushrooms. I believe, replacing is better than leaving something completely.
