80 Minutes Preparation Time

30 Minutes Cooking Time

4 – 6 Serving Size

INGREDIENTS

2 ½ tbsp olive oil
5 pcs zucchini sliced lengthwise
1 pc white onion, sliced
1 clove garlic, finely chopped
2 pcs red bell peppers, thinly sliced
400 g canned whole tomatoes
2 tbsp tomato paste
35 g fresh mint, chopped
As needed salt
As needed freshly ground pepper
As needed cooking spray
300 g mozzarella cheese, grated
3 tbsp all purpose flour
500 g plain yogurt
2 pcs whole eggs

PREPARATION

Using your Miele Induction Hob, heat the olive oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Pan fry the zucchini slices in batches until golden, then remove from the pan. Using the same pan, sauté the sliced white onions, chopped garlic, and sliced red bell peppers for 4 minutes. Add the canned whole tomatoes, tomato paste, and chopped fresh mint. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Grease an ovenproof dish with cooking spray. Arrange half of the fried zucchini slices at the bottom, then add half of the tomato sauce, followed by a layer of half the grated mozzarella cheese. Cover with the remaining tomato sauce and finally, arrange the remaining zucchini slices evenly on top.
Combine the all purpose flour, plain yogurt, eggs and the remaining mozzarella cheese in a bowl. Pour the mixture over the moussaka.
Place the zucchini moussaka inside your Miele Combi Microwave Oven at shelf level 1. Select the MW + Fan Grill Function at 300 W + 180 °C for 30 minutes. Bake until the cheese is bubbling and golden brown on top.
