Hello everybody.
Today’s lunch is Greek ♡♥.
Mom gave me some fresh eggplants looks really good, moussaka was the choice, first thing I wanted to do them as we normally cook it..I mean arabic version of it (منزله باذنجان ) but then changed my mind, white sauce in moussaka gives it a delicious twist, plus Greek moussaka reminds me of beautiful picturesque small village in Cyprus mountains where I ate it the first time..It was really really good.
