Sweet Potato & Spinach Vegetarian Lasagne

June 20th 2006 10:05
Yummy and healthy, and great to warm up the house in winter with the oven on! This is just a simple dinner that you can make when there's not a lot left in the fridge and you're not feeling particularly inspired. I like to make extra so I can warm it up the next day for lunch. It's even passable cold if you don't have access to a microwave at lunch time. All your co-workers will be jealous! (And I know that's your aim in life!)

Ingredients:
Cheese
Plain Flour
Milk
Butter
Sweet Potato
Spinach
Lasagne Sheets



Method:
Peel and slice the sweet potato thinly. Place in a medium sized saucepan and cover with water. Bring to the boil and simmer until tender but not overcooked. Slice the spinach and boil until limp. Meanwhile make the white sauce by melting butter in a small sauce pan and stirring in plain flour to thicken. Gradually add milk and simmer until thick. Stir in grated or small cubes of cheese.


In a medium sized baking dish spread a little sauce on the bottom. Next lay down a lasagne sheet. Place a layer of sweet potato and spinach on top, and cover in white sauce. Repeat until all the mixture is used up (about three layers). Sprinkle with grated parmesan cheese, this will melt and go golden and crispy. Cook in the oven on high until the lasagne is cooked through and relatively solid. This should take about 20 minutes, depending on the size and depth of the dish.



HOT TIP: Soak the lasagne sheets in water before cooking for a lighter texture.

you don't like to use ricotta for your lasagna?
