Greek moussaka with porcini mushrooms – Gordon Ramsay’s version

Greek moussaka with porcini mushrooms


Lna autumn version of Moussakathe iconic Greek flan made with aubergines and yogurt bechamel, enriched with a succulent meat and mushroom ragout.

Moussakà is a typical recipe of the Greek, Balkan and Middle Eastern gastronomic traditions. The principle is similar to that of many other flans, cooked in the oven, such as the English cottage pie (also called shepherd’s pie), our aubergine parmigiana, or the South African bobotie.

It is a flan with alternating layers of minced meat with tomato, aubergines and potatoes. The covering is made with a rich layer of bechamel, very often made with the addition of Greek yogurt.

For this version I allowed myself a single poetic license, the addition of mixed mushrooms to the minced beef and pork, to make its ragù even more enveloping and rich.

Autumn moussaka: which spices to use

As you know, in every recipe I propose, the spices they cannot be missing, especially when they add an authentic flavor to recipes, especially international ones like this Greek Moussaka.

For this preparation I used cinnamon, star anise, nutmeg, laurel And black pepper ground. Spices and aromatic herbs that further warm the aromas of the dish and transport it into the winter months.

I’ll leave you my shopping list:
