Instructions to make Vegetable lasagna:
- To make the bechamel sauce. In a sauce pan add the butter. After it melts add the flour and cook the flour under low heat for 3 minutes until there are no lumps. After that add the milk gently to the flour. Stir the whole mixture until it thickens and resembles a sauce consistency. Season it with salt, pepper, and nutmeg. Add the cheese mixture and set aside while it cools down.
- For the ricotta mixture. Add all the ingredients mentioned under ricotta mixture in a bowl and mix and set aside.
- For the vegetable mixture. Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil.
- Once the oil is hot add the chopped garlic and cook it for 30 seconds. Add the vegetables and cook them under medium low heat for 10 minutes until the vegetables are soft and moist.
- Meanwhile preheat the oven to 425°F
- When the vegetables are done, now it is time to layer the lasagna.
- Give the baking dish a good layer of butter wash. For layering the lasagna, divide the ricotta mix into 3 parts, vegetable mix into 3 parts and bechamel sauce into 4 parts.
- Tip: Layer the lasagna sheets in between the bechamel sauce and the ricotta mixture. The moisture content in the sauce and ricotta mixture helps cook the lasagna sheets.
- Pour 1/4 of bechamel sauce on the bottom and top with 3 sheets of lasagna sheets. Number of sheets depends on the size of the casserole dish. Top the lasagna sheets with 1/3 of ricotta mixture and top it with 1/3 of vegetable mixture.
- Continue layering the lasagna with similiar steps. Sauce, lasagna sheets, ricotta mixture and vegetable mix. Lastly top the sheets with the bechamel sauce and cover with aluminium foil and bake it for 45 minutes.
- After baking it uncover the foil and top with cheese mixture and bake it until the cheese melts.
- Mine took almost 15 minutes for the cheese to become bubbly and goey. Once the baking is done give a good 15 minutes for the lasagna to set before serving.
