Moussaga

Post by Goddess »

Definitely not a typo! I did mean Moussaga!

I just had a great big dish of this made by the Fuul and Felafel man - the little devil had put about 5 chillies on top so now I'm on fire!

It's a lovely dish if you're vegetarian and don't like bland food - it's basically aubergine, potatoes, green peppers all baked in a lovely spicy tomato sauce. I'm too lazy to make it myself - and who would bother when it costs a couple of pounds for a big pot!

I took all five of the chillies off - but I suspect the damage was already done! :lol:

My lips are still on fire!!! The chilli level does tend to vary in a lot of cookery here. A few weeks back I took a huge bite out of a felafel sandwich - only to find a whole chilli hiding in the middle of my felafel!!! We're normally quite strict making sure we get the anti-chilli versions of everything - but everynow and then one slips through the net just when you least expect it!
The Moussaga is normally on the slightly warm side - but I think they must have a new body in the shop who's a bit heavy handed!!!
