vegetable lasana with béchamel sauce

Easy vegetable lasagna recipe

A few years ago I traveled to Italy and fell in love with its gastronomy. Guess what I mostly ate? Indeed, all types of pasta. Macaroni, spaghetti, cannelloni and lots and lots of pizza.

I especially remember one day we got lost in the center of Rome. It was time to eat and we went into a totally local looking restaurant.

Looking at the menu I decided to try their vegetable lasagna. It was the best decision I could make.

That vegetarian lasagna tasted great! When I returned to Barcelona I tried to make it the same as that restaurant. It came out very good but I have never been able to match that vegetable lasagna in the center of Rome.

Today I leave you one of my favorite vegetable lasagna recipes so you can enjoy an exquisite vegetarian dish.

For those who like to modify the recipe, you can add 3 cans of tuna that is also delicious.

How to make vegetable lasagna: Preparation of vegetables

  1. Peel and cut the onions into small pieces.
  2. Wash and cut the zucchini, eggplant and carrots into cubes.
  3. We wash the broccoli and cut it into the florets.
  4. We recommend cooking the vegetables separately since each one has a specific cooking time and we will also put different combinations of vegetables in the different layers of the lasagna. However, if you prefer to put everything together, we recommend starting with the onion and then with the aubergine as these are the vegetables that take the longest to cook.
  5. We put the vegetables to cook with a splash of oil in a pan.
  6. While the vegetables are browning, preheat the oven to about 200ºC.

Preparation of béchamel

  1. In a saucepan, pour the butter. Heat the butter over low heat until melted.
  2. Once the butter melts, add the 30 grams of flour. Stir well until the mixture is homogeneous without lumps. We recommend using rods to beat the mixture.
  3. Cook for 3 minutes without stopping to beat the mixture.
  4. While we continue to mix, add a little milk. When it thickens a little we pour the rest of the milk without stopping stirring.
  5. We continue stirring until it acquires a consistent texture.
  6. We splash and it's ready! I recommend adding salt, pepper and nutmeg for an exquisite taste.

Assembling the lasagna

  1. Prepare the lasagna plates as indicated on the package and spread them out on a tray.
  2. Add a third of the fried tomato and spread it all over the lasagna pasta trying to make it homogeneous.
  3. Next we add a quarter of the bechamel that we have prepared. We extend as we have done with the fried tomato.
  4. In the bottom layer we put the mushrooms and zucchini. We put the same number of pasta plates on top that we have used previously and add one more layer of tomato and béchamel.
  5. In the middle layer we put the broccoli and the carrot. Put the lasagna noodles on top again and add more tomato and béchamel sauce.
  6. In the upper layer we put the eggplant and onion. We pour all the remaining bechamel and put the grated cheese.
  7. Let the vegetable lasagna cook in the oven for about 15-20 minutes at 180ºC (it is important to be careful as the exact time will depend on the type of oven)
  8. Remove from the oven, serve and enjoy an exquisite vegetarian lasagna!

Thermomix vegetable lasagna

We can prepare the béchamel for the lasagna in the kitchen robot for greater comfort.

Put the oil, flour and butter in the Thermomix and cook for about 3 minutes at speed 3. Next we add the milk, salt, pepper and nutmeg and let it cook at speed 4 for 8 minutes.

It's ready! Have you seen how easy and comfortable?

I started cosmorecipes in 2020 during the time we were cooped up at home. Having so much free time I spent a lot of time in the kitchen trying different dishes. So I decided to mix cooking with my other great passion: web programming. That's why I decided to open this blog where I post the different recipes that I'm cooking.
