     Moussaka with tahini

Category   Entrees - Maindishes
Sub Category   None
Servings   4 pers.

Ingredients
2 aubergines
olive oil
1 large onion, finely chopped
4 garlic cloves, crushed
400g chopped tomatoes
1 x 400g can chickpeas, drained
1tbsp tomato purée
6 tomatoes, sliced
For the tahini dressing-
 
125g yoghurt
flat-leaf parsley, chopped
40g tahini
couple of pinches of za’atar

Instructions
Method Step 1- Chop one aubergine into bite-size cubes, lay on a plate and cover with salt. Set aside for 15min to draw out bitter juices. Slice the other aubergine into rounds, then salt and set aside. Heat 1tbsp of oil in a large pan and sauté the onion for 10-15min until it caramelises.
Step 2- Rinse the cubed aubergine and add to the pan with another tablespoon of olive oil. Cook, stirring from time to time, for about 10min until the cubes have turned golden. Stir in the garlic and cook for a couple of minutes until you can smell the aroma. Pour in the tomatoes and tomato purée and bring to a simmer. Cover and cook over the lowest heat for 15min. Rinse the salt from the remaining aubergine. Preheat the grill and oil a baking sheet. Brush the aubergine slices liberally with oil and grill until golden, turning halfway through.
Step 3- Preheat the oven to 200C. Place a layer of the aubergine sauce in the bottom of an ovenproof dish, then cover this with the sliced tomatoes, chickpeas and finally the grilled aubergine. Drizzle with a little extra oil. Bake for 20min, until bubbling and golden on top.
Step 4- To make the dressing, stir together the yoghurt, tahini and za’atar to taste. Scatter the chopped parsley over the moussaka and serve with the tahini dressing.
