Hello Food Adventure followers :)
Hope all of you getting over winter blues soon. Mother nature already started to showing her signs for spring time. So it`s awakening and cleaning time recently. And also just before Easter it`s a kind of detoxing period.
Almost two weeks ago Lent period started which is for the followers of lent this is the period abstain from meat and dairy products until Easter. And I have convinced my fiance to keep up on the strict lent this year which I feed him with hearty vegan dishes, usually he is not very much keen on! As both of us coming from Mediterranean origin that is so easy to prepare tasty vegan dishes with Mediterranean way of cooking with Middle Eastern flavours.
Well I would like to share couple of my easy cooking and delicious recipes which you can adapt to your own taste maybe with replacing couple of ingredients. Here is one of my recipe -
Veggie Lasagne :
1 medium size Courgette
2 medium size Aubergines
2-3 peppers
1 medium size onion
200 gr mushrooms
1 tsp salt
1 tsp pepper
500gr chopped tomatoes/passata
50ml olive oil
100gr feta cheese(optional)
200gr grated mozzarella cheese or sliced cheddar cheese
Lasagne sheets
First, chop the onion to chunk size. And follow to chop courgette, aubergines and peppers almost same chunk size. Cut half the mushrooms. Then put your saucepan on medium fire with olive oil in it. When the oil warmed up first put chopped onions and caramelized them for 3-4 minutes. Add all veggies and mix them with onions and sauté/cook for 10 minutes. They don`t need to cook well. When they are ready take of from heat and add seasoning(salt & pepper).
While the veggie filling is getting a little cool off you can switch the oven on 170C and
prepare baking casserole. Cover the bottom of the baking casserole with little amount of tomato purée/passata then place one layer lasagne sheets to cover the dish completely. Then spread half amount of cooked veggie mix to cover lasagne sheets. Crumble half of the feta cheese over the veggie mix. Then put another layer of lasagne sheets again. Repeat the same process with spreading rest of veggie mix and crumble feta cheese all over. Then cover again with lasagne sheets. And pour over all tomato puree then cover the top with grated cheese or cheese slices. Then place in the oven to cook for an hour. We found this dish very yummy, hope you will like it too.
Bon appétit!
