A crispy piece of lasagna: it’s comfort food from the best!
If you like your lasagna less crispy just take it our of the oven some minutes earlier… The mozzarella will be really chewy, however, all is done inside the lasagna!
Although we need quite a lot of ingredients it’s a surprisingly easy & fast pasta dish.
Let’s start w/ the vegetables…
1st step: preheat the oven to 190° C w/ fan.
What do we need?
- red peppers
- mushrooms
- shallots
- courgette
- eggplant
- garlic.
We cut everything in slices, except of the red peppers which are halved.
Where is the garlic?
Unfortunately it looked nice & fresh when I bought it, but the cloves turned out to be brown & mellow – so they ended up in the bin. Garlic is nice for the overall flavour – it’s also delicious w/o garlic (I tested both versions!).
Toss the sliced vegetables w/ olive oil & salt & pepper & arrange everything on a baking tray lined w/ baking parchment.
After an oven session of about 30 min all is fine. Just peel the roasted red peppers & put everything aside.
Make sure the oven is still heated…
What to use now?
- lasagna sheets
- roasted vegetables
- mozzarella
- tomato pulp & tomato purée w/ dried herbs (oregano, thyme, basil)
- Parmesan.
We slice the mozzarella & we grate the Parmesan.
We mix the tomato sauce & add the grated Parmesan.
Now it’s time to assemble the lasagna….
- start w/ tomato sauce on the bottom…
- add lasagna sheets
- add vegetables
- add tomato sauce
- …
For the next layer:
- add lasagna sheets
- add vegetables
- add tomato sauce.
We finish:
- add lasagna sheets
- add rest of tomato sauce
- add mozzarella.
After about 20-25 min the lasagna is fine while the mozzarella is still chewy…
Add another 5-10 min: you’ll get a crispy lasagna.
Enjoy!

- Preheat the oven to 190° C w/ fan.
- Clean & trim the vegetables; cut them in slices (except the red peppers: cut them in halves!).
- Add some olive oil as well as salt & pepper & mix well w/ your hands.
- Line a baking tray w/ baking parchment.
- Arrange the vegetables on the baking tray & let them roast for about 30 min.
- Peel the red peppers; then put all the roasted vegetables aside.
- Grate the Parmesan.
- Mix everything for the tomato sauce; optional: press the garlic & fold in.
- Cut the mozzarella into slices.
- Rub some olive oil on the bottom of the casserole.
- Add some tomato sauce & put 2 lasagna sheets on top.
- Add vegetables.
- Add tomato sauce.
- Add 2 more lasagna sheets & repeat...
- Finalize w/ 2 lasagna sheets & the rest of the tomato sauce.
- Press equally down.
- Cover everything w/ mozzarella slices.
- Bake in the preheated oven (190° C w/ fan) for about 20-30 min.
- If not 100% sure after 20-30 min just take a wooden stick & insert it in the lasagna - it should be totally soft... (it’s like the test when baking a cake!).
- Serve at once or let it rest...
This is the result when reheating lasagna in the oven… It might get very crispy!
