Turkish Mousaka is normally made with mince meat and topped with Sliced Potatoes and the Greek version is made like a lasange with the mince at the bottom then the Aubergines and the top is like Cypriot Makaroni in the oven ( the Creamy One)
They are both quality |

It depends really, some Greeks use Aubergines, but some prefer potatoes, I know I do!! :)
Although a dish that, in my opinion, is slightly nicer than Mousaka, is "Makaronia tou fournou", it's some tasty food I tell ya! ;) :D |
