Number of Servings: 6

Ingredients

    3 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
    2 tbsp Canola Oil
    30 grams Flour, white
    1 cup Milk, 1%
    1000 grams Potato, raw
    1000 grams Eggplant, fresh
    500 grams Tomato Sauce
    200 grams Split Peas
    0.5 tsp Cinnamon, ground
    1 tsp, crumbled Bay Leaf
    2 tsp Salt
    0.5 tsp Pepper, black
    1 medium (2-1/2" dia) Onions, raw

Directions

Peel and slice the potatoes. Mix with 1 tbsp of olive oil and place in the big baking dish you are going to use to bake the whole moussaka in. Bake at GM 7 for 20 to 30 minutes.
Meanwhile, make a reasonably runny béchamel sauce with the canola oil, flour, milk, some additional water, one bay leaf, salt and pepper.
Fry the onion, once soft, add the tomato sauce, bay leaf, cinnamon, salt and pepper. Once boiling, add the lentils and cook until soft (10 minutes).
Slice the eggplants, brush with the remaining olive oil, place on a baking sheet and bake until soft and golden (about 15 minutes).
Pour the tomato/lentil mixture over the potatoes. Arrange the eggplant slices on top. Pour the béchamel sauce over the whole.
Bake GM 7 until golden brown (30 minutes).
