Wash the eggplant and cut into approximately 2 cm cubes. In a large bowl, mix the eggplant cubes with the olive oil, season with salt and pepper. Preheat the oven to 200°C. Spread the eggplant cubes on a baking sheet and bake in the oven for about 20 minutes, until tender. In the meantime, finely dice the onions and garlic and sauté in olive oil in a large, deep pan. Add the ground beef and fry until crumbly. Add the tomatoes to the ground beef and simmer gently for about 10 minutes, then season with salt, pepper, oregano, and cinnamon. Mix in the eggplant and pour the ground beef and vegetable mixture into an ovenproof casserole dish. Puree the ricotta with the feta cheese and eggs, season with salt and pepper, and spread over the ground beef. Place the moussaka in the oven and bake for about 15-20 minutes. Served with white bread and a salad with olive oil dressing. TIP: The moussaka tastes even more delicious with minced lamb!
