Instructions
Step 1
1. Cut the zucchini. Preheat the oven to 220 degrees and prepare the 500ml broth. Cut the zucchini into slices no more than ½ cm thick.
Step 2
2. Bake and prepare.
Mix the zucchini, 1 tbsp olive oil per person, salt and pepper directly on the baking tray with baking paper. Divide the zucchini over a baking tray with baking paper and bake in the oven for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, finely chop the onion and press or finely chop the garlic. Strip the oregano leaves from the sprigs and finely chop.
Step 3
3. Make roux.
Heat ½ tbsp butter per person in a wok or deep frying pan and fry the onion and garlic for 2 minutes over medium heat. Add the flour and stir dry with a whisk. Add a big saucer of the stock and stir with the whisk until the stock is absorbed. Repeat this operation several times with the remaining stock, stir until the sauce is smooth, bring to the boil and allow to thicken for another 1-2 minutes. Season with pepper.
Step 4
4. Finish sauce.
Add the oregano and (uncooked) spinach to the sauce and let it wilt while stirring. Finally, add the cooking cream, 1/3 of the parmigiana, salt and pepper. Cook the whole for another 2-3 minutes. Grease the baking dish with butter or olive oil. Cut the lasagna sheets to the size of your baking dish.
Step 5
5. Fill the baking dish.
Pour a layer of sauce into the baking dish. Cover with lasagna sheets and press them well so the sauce is evenly distributed and the lasagne cooks more evenly. Cover this again with a layer of sauce and then place a few zucchini slices on the lasagna sheets. If you desire extra cheese, add some in between each layer. Repeat until all ingredients are used, but remember keep some sauce for the top.
Step 6
6. Bake and serve.
Cover the lasagna with a layer of sauce and sprinkle with the remaining parmigiana. Bake the lasagna in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes. Let rest for 3 minutes before serving to firm up. Divide the lasagna over the plates. Enjoy your meal!
