Method

  1. Heat the oven to 450°F (230°C); roast the eggplant in half the olive oil 9 minutes, until golden.
  2. Brown the ground turkey in the last olive oil, the garlic and cumin 30 seconds, then cook the tomato down while it roasts 5 minutes, until dry and the turkey reads 165°F (74°C).
  3. Beat the ricotta smooth with the egg and half the dill, layer the eggplant and ground turkey in a 6-inch (15 cm) dish, spoon the ricotta over and bake 7 minutes, until set. Sift the smoked paprika and dill over.
  4. Keeps four days, freezes for two months; reheat at 350°F (180°C), with fennel.
Chef’s tipCook the tomato down until dry, so the layers stay neat when the moussaka is cut.
