Stove-Top Moussaka image

Moussaka is such a yummy dish but it can be a tad of a chore to put together sometimes. This is a quick version that can be made on the stovetop and be on the table in no time. I originally found this recipe in BBC Good Food Magazine.

I'm not sure if I did something wrong, but my moussaka was really runny.

I would recommend using a larger skillet than the recipe calls for. I had to cook the moussaka in batches.

The bechamel sauce was a little too thick for my taste, but otherwise this recipe was delicious.

I liked the idea of a stove-top moussaka, but I found that it didn't cook evenly.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my moussaka turned out dry and bland.

I'm not a huge fan of eggplant, but this recipe changed my mind! The flavors all came together perfectly.

I would give this recipe 4 out of 5 stars. The flavors were great but it was a bit too greasy for my taste.
