Thanks for the advice. I steamed sweet potatoes
Fantastic thank you. I added wine, but it made it too runny, still very delicious. Maybe next time simmer it off longer. I thought the topping would be too runny, but it stiffened up beautifully on cooking. A huge hit with the family.

Hello there - very nice thank you - I steamed the potatoes in the varoma as the sauce was cooking - worked fine and one less step
I've made this twice now - a really nice recipe - thank you
Hi

karenemblin: thank you
Thank you from Thermomishes
Thanks for sharing this. Made a really nice Moussaka
Absolutely loved this dish, it was so tasty, rich and full of flavour. Thank you for a great recipie
Yum!! I didn't steam the potatoes. Cut them very thin and they cooked well. I forgot the egg through the bechamel sauce at the end so mine was a tad runny but the flavours were delicious and I'd definately make again!
