Indulge in a rich and flavorful experience tonight with Moussaka di Maiale e Feta, a comforting layered casserole that's sure to impress!
Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius (350 degrees Fahrenheit).
Slice the eggplants into 1 cm thick rounds and sprinkle with salt. Let them sit for 30 minutes to draw out moisture.
In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook until soft, about 5 minutes.
Add the minced pork to the skillet, breaking it apart. Cook until browned, about 10 minutes.
Dice the tomatoes and add them to the skillet along with cinnamon, nutmeg, salt, and black pepper. Stir and let it simmer for 15 minutes until the tomatoes have softened.
In another skillet, rinse the eggplant slices under water to remove excess salt and pat them dry. Grill them in batches until browned on both sides.
In a baking dish, layer half of the eggplant, then half of the pork mixture, followed by half of the crumbled feta cheese. Repeat the layers.
Top the final layer with breadcrumbs and a drizzle of olive oil.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 30 minutes, until golden on top.
Remove from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes before serving.
