INSTRUCTIONS
TOMATO SAUCE
THE OTHER SAUCE
TO ASSEMBLE
TOMATO SAUCE: Prepare vegetables as indicated in the ingredient list & set
aside. Heat oil in a large pot until hot, & saute the chopped & diced
vegetables just until the onion has softened. Add the herbs & continue to
saute stirring occasionally for a few minutes longer. Add the rest of the
sauce ingredients & let simmer for 15 minutes, stir occasionally. Set
aside, once coked.
THE OTHER SAUCE:
Heat oil, stir in the flour & cook for about 30 seconds. Remove from the
heat & slowly beat in the milk, ensuring that no lumps form. Return to the
heat & cook, stirring over medium heat, until the sauce has thickened.
Season with salt, pepper & nutmeg. Set aside.
TO ASSEMBLE: If using dried pasta, it is advisable to cook it first. If
using fresh pasta, just sprinkle with a few drops of water before baking.
Ladle several spoonfuls of tomato sauce in the bottom of a lasagna pan then
top with 1/4 of pasta, let the sheets rise up the sides of the pan. Top
with half with the other sauce & half the peas. Add another layer of
pasta, another layer of tomato sauce & top with a third layer of pasta. Add
the remaining the other sauce & peas. Top with the rest of the tomato
sauce. Drizzle with olive oil & sprinkle with thyme.
Bake in a pre-heated oven at 400F for 45 minutes, until bubbling hot. Serve
with home-made garlic bread & a green salad.
* If using fresh peas, blanch before adding them to the lasagna layers.
