Moussaka in Greek

Moussaka is a culinary masterpiece of Greece. Despite the fact that Greek moussaka is called a delicacy, it is not difficult to prepare it, it's about the right combination of products - ripe tomatoes, eggplant and minced lamb. Of course, the unique taste of Greek moussaka is a dry white wine in which minced meat is stewed and a special sauce based on the famous bechamel sauce. And you can also add cabbage, potatoes, zucchini and even chickpeas to moussaka, but such moussaka will no longer be Greek, but Balkan, Turkish or Bulgarian.
