Yikes "later tonight" turned into days...sorry :/

So, at the request of my grandmother she would like me to keep the family Italian recipes just that family. With that said here are two delicious (non-Italian) recipes I use quite frequently.

MOUSSAKA
1 pound ground lamb
1 medium onion, chopped
1 tablespoon minced parsley
1 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
1 cup (8 oz can) of undrained tomatoes
¼ cup dry red wine or water
1 eggplant
4 eggs
½ cup milk
¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese

Preheat oven to 375. In fry pan brown lamb; drain excess fat. Add onion, parsley, salt, pepper, nutmeg, tomatoes, and wine. Simmer, uncover, about 10 minutes stirring occasionally. Peel eggplant and slice length wise into ½ inch slices. Arrange half of eggplant into bottom of pan. Top with half of meat mixture, remaining eggplant and remaining meat. Cover with foil. Bake 30 minutes or until eggplant is tender. Beat together eggs and milk. Pour over partially cooked casserole; sprinkle with cheese. Bake uncovered 10 to 15 minutes or until egg mixture is set. To serve, let stand about 10 minutes and cut into squares.

EASTER PASKA (one of my favorites during the holidays)

13 cups flour
8 egg yolks
2 tablespoon butter
1 quart lukewarm milk
1 ½ cup sugar
1 yeast (regular size)
1 tablespoon salt
1 cup raisins

(2 whole eggs- 1 tablespoon butter 1/8cup milk (cooked to pudding thickness).
Dissolve the yeast in quart of lukewarm milk. Mix all the ingredients together and let raise double in bulk. Knead and add 1 cup of raisins and mix in dough again , then let raise. Take enough of dough to fill ½ of pan and let raise until the dough is level with pan. Cover top of the dough with beaten egg yolk and put into oven. Bake at 350 for 35 minutes.
(Rinse raisins before using)
