Saagwala Lasagne
Serves 6
Ingredients:
60g olive oil
2 sliced eggplants
1 leek, thinly sliced
6 field mushrooms, sliced
500g cottage cheese
400g Barker’s Professional Spinach Saagwala Meal Sauce, heated
400g cooked lasagne sheets, drained
Method:
Heat the olive oil in a frypan.
Add the eggplant and lightly fry on both sides until golden.
Remove the eggplant, add a little more oil and cook the leek for 2 minutes.
Add the mushrooms and cook for a further minute.
In a greased earthenware dish, lay down sheets of lasagne trimmed to the shape of the dish.
Spoon a thin layer of Barker’s Professional Spinach Saagwala Meal Sauce, followed by a layer of eggplant, leek, mushroom and a spooned layer of cottage cheese.
Repeat this sequence until three-quarters of the dish is full.
Spoon over the sauce.
Place into a pre-heated 185°C oven and bake for 30 minutes.
Serve and garnish with fresh mint leaves.
HANDY HINT:
Instead of using lasagne sheets, spiral up and down the dish layers with cooked egg noodles, keeping them close and compact as you go.
