  This is without doubt the tastiest and easiest recipe for moussaka I have ever come across. My family loved it. As a side dish to this recipe, I toasted some wholemeal pitta breads, cut them into strips, and used them to dip into a green olive pate. Wonderful.

  This is very tasty and very easy to make. I have made it twice and not sure about cooking the aubergines in this way - mine were quite soggy the first time and a bit hard the second time! Would love to have a suggestion for and alternative to aubergine.

  Wonderful recipe. I made this last night for my husband and I and it was fantastic. It was very easy and quick and the taste was great. I will definitely be making this again. Thank you!

  In response to the above comment, when cooking the traditional version of this dish, I slice the aubergines, drizzle some olive oil on top and then roast them in the oven for about 10 minutes (200 degrees). Once out of the oven I place them on kitchen paper until most of the oil is absorbed. This is a very tasty and easy recipe. I like to serve this with some Greek salad on the side.

  I made this for lunch today for Mother's Day and it's absolutely delicious. I made a mistake and bought creme fraiche instead of Greek yoghurt but it was fine. There's quite a lot left over after serving three of us. I'll definately make it again.

  Loved this - definitely the best moussaka recipe I've tried, even liked my aubergine-hating husband. I griddled the aubergine slices rather than microwaving them.

  Made this for tea tonight and was told that I had to make it again! Next time I do this I will do the aubergines in the oven because doing them in the microwave made them too soggy and difficult to slice. Very easy recipe and a great taste.

  This is a great recipe, really easy to make and very tasty. I like to add an onion to the mince for a bit of extra flavour. Not normally an Aubergine fan but this is fab. Liked the Aubergine roasted in the oven better than done in the microwave.

  We really enjoyed this, but next time, I'd cut my aubergine thinner. Also, I think it'd be great with mushrooms in the mince.

  Love it! Added a cinnamon stick to the tomato sauce and I sometimes add more herbs (different every time, garlic, thyme or oregano), since i use plain tomato. I also prefer the aubergine griddled, and allthough it works from the microwave, turned a bit soggy and sadlooking indeed. Last time I got away with boiling the aubergine slices shortly and leaving the whole dish in the oven (fan 175C) instead of the grill (everything to escape having to using more grease on those spongy aubergines... ;)

  The whole family enjoyed this dish, including my 8yr old. I roasted the aubergines for 10mins as was suggested instead of microwaving them and i also added some ground cinnamon. Will definatley do this again.

  fantastic dish......cooked this for all my friends one night! 9 out of 10 loved it. And it was easy to make for a big group as it browns just as easy in the oven so i could make 2 of them. Nicer with lamb mince and def agree with above comments to roast the aubergines.served with fresh crusty bread and feta cheese salad...yum

  This recipe certainly lived up to its easy billing. A great dish, but I might add a little cinnamon next time round.
