Moussaka – Greece's National Dish πŸ‡¬πŸ‡· Moussaka is an iconic dish, a staple in the Greek cuisine.
The Ancient Greeks would eat eggs from quail and hens, fish, legumes, olives, cheeses, bread, figs, and any vegetables they could grow, which might include arugula, asparagus, cabbage, carrots and cucumbers. As previously stated, meats were reserved for the wealthy.
Probably the most famous of Greek dishes, moussaka consists of layers of fried aubergine, minced meat and potatoes. That's all topped with a creamy bΓ©chamel sauce and then baked until golden brown. Some Greek restaurants will also serve an equally delectable vegetarian version.
