Zucchini Moussaka - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 lb beef, ground
4 large potatoes
4 large tomatoes
2 -4 medium zucchini
1 lb tomatoes, canned
1/2 cup beef stock
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons italian seasoning
2 garlic cloves
1 shallot
1 tablespoon black pepper
salt, to taste
pepper, to taste

Preparation

Finely mince the garlic cloves and shallot. Fry the ground beef with the minced garlic and shallot until nicely browned, season with salt and pepper to taste.
Set aside.
Peel and slice the potatoes, about 1/4 inch thick.
Slice the tomatoes and zucchini likewise.
Combine canned tomatoes, beef stock, 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning and 1/2 tablespoon pepper.
Cover the ground of a large pot with the olive oil, then layer it with the sliced tomatoes.
Sprinkle some Italian seasoning, salt and pepper on the tomatoes.
Place a layer of sliced potatoes on the tomato layer, season the same way.
Place a layer of sliced zucchini on the potato layer, season like the tomatoes and potatoes.
Cover with the browned ground beef as last layer, then pour prepared tomato sauce over it.
You can now sprinkle some parmesan on top. If you use nutritional yeast, I'd recommend to mix it into the tomato sauce. Parmesan mixed into the sauce is another option to play with.
Bring the moussaka to a gentle boil, cover and let simmer on low heat for about 1 hour.
Serve with plain yoghurt if desired.
