Ingredients to make Lasagna of vegetables and cottage cheese:
- 12 sheets of lasagna.
- 2 carrots.
- 1 onion.
- 1 zucchini.
- 1 read.
- 100 grams of fresh or frozen spinach.
- I jumped.
- 1 deciliter of olive oil.
- 8 tablespoons of tomato sauce.
- 100 grams of cottage cheese.
- 2 glasses of milk.
- 2 butter spoons.
- 3 tablespoons of flour.
- 1 pinch of nutmeg.
How to make Vegetable Lasagna and Cottage Cheese:
- Cook the plates in boiling water, oil and salt.
- Once cooked, drain them, run under cold water and dry with a kitchen towel.
- Reserve them by brushing them lightly with olive oil.
- Peel the carrots and cut them into thin strips along with the leek, onion and zucchini.
- On the other hand we cook the spinach in boiling water with a pinch of salt.
- Once cooked, drain them and chop them with a knife until they form almost a puree and reserve.
- Sauté the vegetables all together in a casserole with a little oil and salt until lightly cooked and set aside.
- To make the béchamel, place the butter in a saucepan and when it melts, add the flour and let it fry in the butter.
- At that time we add the milk and let it cook over low heat without stopping stirring until it thickens.
- Add half of the béchamel sauce little by little with the cooked, drained and chopped spinach and heat on the stove until it forms a consistent cream.
- We put to the point of salt.
- We assemble the lasagna interspersing the spinach cream, lasagna plate and sautéed vegetables.
- We ended up placing some sautéed vegetables on the last layer, and the béchamel sauce with the cottage cheese melted inside it.
- Sprinkle with a little parsley or chives and serve hot.
- If we want to give this dish a little more color and if we have leftover béchamel, we mix it with a tablespoon of tomato sauce until we get a sauce called “aurora sauce” that has a slight pinkish color.
