How to make

Peel and cut the potatoes into cubes. Heat a little oil in a pan and saute the mince, onions, carrots and peppers.

Add the potatoes, tomato juice and spices. Stir well and pour the mixture into a suitable oven dish. Pour in enough water to cover the products. Bake the dish at 390°F (200 °C) for about 40 min. or until the vegetables soften. Make the topping by braising the flour in the butter.

Next, pour in the milk and stir energetically so there's no lumps left. Salt and add spices to taste. Beat the eggs and pour them into the sauce in a thin trickle.

Take the moussaka out and sprinkle it with 1/2 the grated cheese. Pour on the sauce and sprinkle the remaining cheese. Return to the oven to crisp for another 10-15 min.
