MUSAKA

 
Here's a typical Serbian dish, sent in by Gumbo Pages correspondent Goran Ocokoljic in Belgrade, Yugoslavia. Seems like it might have come up from Greece, a local variant of their "moussaka".

Heat oil in a pan. Add onion and cook untill it gets golden brown. Add meat, salt and a lot of pepper. Fry it until meat gets brown. Remove the pan from the heat.

Cut potatoes in slices similar as for chips but not that thin (about 2-3 mm). Put 2 teaspoons of salt in potatoes and mix it well. In casserole put oil, than potatoes until it covers the bottom. Put meat to cover potatoes and than potatoes again. Mix 4 eggs in a bowl, add milk, mix well and than pour over potatoes and meat and put in owen for about 40 minutes or until potato on the top gets brown.
