Idealna vegetarijanska lazanja. Suvi vrganj dodaje svežim šampinjonima, ili malo starijoj varijanti - cremini pečurkama - toliko još dodatnog pečurkastog ukusa da je to prosto divno i mora se jesti i jesti... još i još... Ovo je jelo malo zahtevnije za pripremu, uostalom kao i svaka prava lazanja, ali vredi svakog momenta utrošenog na njega.
Pripremala sam nekada ovu lazanju često, ali poslednjih godina nikako da nađem vremena i povoda. Recept je u našu kuću došao u kuvaru Pasta Bible u vremena kad su ovakvi kuvari bili događaj.
Potrebni sastojci:
- 15 g suvih vrganja
- 3/4 šolje (180 ml) vruće vode
- 2 kašike maslinovog ulja
- 6 kašika putera
- 500 g tikvica
- 1 luk, sitno iseckan
- 6 šolja, oko 500 g kremini pečuraka, a sasvim je ukusno i sa šampinjonima
- 2 čena belog luka
- 1 količina zimskog paradajz sosa - po datom receptu
- 2 kašike seckanog svežeg marjorama ili 1 kašika suvog, i malo svežeg lišća za ukrašavanje
- 10 do 12 listova lazanje, prethodno malo prokuvanih. danas sam stavila pola kutije od 500 g suve lazanje
- 2/3 šolje (160 ml) rendanog parmezana
- soli i sveže mlevenog bibera po ukusu
Za beli sos:
- 3 kašike putera
- 1/3 šolje brašna
- 3 3/4 (900 ml) šolje mlakog mleka
- mleveni muškatni orah
Suvi vrganj preliti toplom vodom i pustiti da se natapa dvadesetak minuta. Dobro ocediti, izgnječiti rukama što više tečnosti. Pola tečnosti sačuvati za sos. Isceđene pečurke sitno iseckati.
Tikvice iseći na jako tanke kolutiće. Pečurke iseckati na listiće.
Tikvice iseći na jako tanke kolutiće. Pečurke iseckati na listiće.
Rernu zagrejati na 190°C. Zagrejati maslinovo ulje sa 2 kašike putera u baš povelikom tiganju - ja ovo radim u woku. Dodati u ovo polovinu tikvica. Posoliti ih i pobiberiti. Pržiti ih na umerenoj vatri, često ih okrećući. Ovo će trajati do desetak minuta, dok tikvice ne porumene sasvim blago. Izvaditi iz tiganja prvu turu tikvica i ostaviti da se ocede od masnoće, pa to isto ponoviti sa drugom polovinom tikvica.
Pola preostalog putera zagrejati, pa na njemu izdinstati luk, mešajući ga minut dva. Dodati polovinu iseckanih pečurki i stišnjeni beli luk. Posoliti i pobiberiti po ukusu. Dinstati pečurke dok ne omekšaju. Izvaditi iz posude, pa ponoviti sa ostatkom pečuraka.
Napraviti bešemel. Rastopiti puter u sosijeri, dodati brašno uz mešanje i ržiti ga minut dva. Dodavati postepeno vruće mleko, dobro mešajući sve vreme. Pustiti da uzvri i kuvati uz stalno mešanje dok sos ne postane gust. Začiniti solju, biberom i mlevenim muškatnim oraščićem.
Zimski paradajz sos staviti u blender sa tečnošću koja je sačuvana od namakanja vrganja i izblendati u glatku smesu.
Pomešati tikvice i pečurke, pa u to umešati sitno seckane vrganje i marjoram.
Proveriti da li je paradajz sos dovoljno začinjen, pa trećinu usuti u vatrostalnu posudu. Na ovo ravnomerno rasporediti polovinu povrća.
Pokriti ovo trećinom bešemela, pa na to staviti pola listova lazanje.
Ponoviti slojeve, pa sve pokriti ostatkom paradajz sosa i bešemela. Na sve izrendati parmezan.
Ovo je ovako po originalnom receptu. Mi volimo testeninu, pa ja dodam i donji sloj. Dakle ređam je ovako:
1. trećina listova lazanje
2. trećina zimskog paradajz sosa
3. polovina povrća
4. trećina bešemela
5. druga trećina listova lazanje
6. druga trećina zimskog paradajz sosa
7. preostalo povrće
8. druga trećina bešemela
9. ostatak listova lazanje
10. ostatak zimskog paradajz sosa
11. ostatak bešemela
12. rendani parmezan
Peći lazanju oko 40 minuta.
E sad, ovaj sam put morala da dokuvam bešemela, jer sam ga izdašno natrpala u lazanju unutra, pa nije ostalo da se njime i pokrije. Stavila sam je u rernu sa to malo bešemela koji mi je ostao, pa sam je, kad je drugi bešemel bio spreman, izvadila i prekrila njim. Tako je ova lazanja ispala bogata i rendanim parmezanom. Prvi sloj sam stavila pre odluke da dokuvavam bešemel, a drugi, kako i priliči, preko poslednjeg belog bešemel sloja.
I da, možda ste videli na slikama, da gde god mogu, ja stavim suvog peršuna. Zašto? Pa, volim, a i koristan je. I lep je zeleni dodatak svemu, a ne menja ukus previše.
Ingredients:
- 1/2 ounce dried porcini mushrooms
- 3/4 cup warm water
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 6 tablespoons butter
- 1 pound zucchini, thinly sliced
- 1 onion, finely chopped
- 6 cups (about 1 pound) cremini mushrooms, thinly sliced
- 2 garlic cloves, crushed
- 1 recipe Winter Tomato Sauce
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh marjoram or 1 teaspoon dried marjoram, plus extra fresh leaves to garnish
- 6 - 8 precooked lasagne sheets
- 2/3 cup fresh grated Parmesan cheese
- salt and ground black pepper
For the white sauce:
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
- 3 3/4 cups hot milk
- nutmeg
1. Put the dried porcini mushrooms in a bowl.Pour over the warm water and allow to soak for 15 to 20 minutes. Turn the porcini and liquid into a fine sieve set over a bowl and squeeze the mushrooms with your hands to release as much liquid as possible. Chop the mushrooms finely and set aside. Strain the soaking liquid through
a fine sieve and reserve half for the sauce.
2. Preheat the oven to 375°F. Heat the olive oil with 2 tablespoons of the butter in a large skillet or saucepan.
3. Add about half the zucchini slices to the pan and season with salt and pepper to taste. Cook the zucchini over medium heat, turning the slices frequently, for 5 - 8 minutes until they are lightly coloured on both sides. Remove the zucchini from the pan with a slotted spoon and allow to drain on paper towels. Repeat with the remaining zucchini.
4. Melt half the remaining butter in the fat remaining in the pan, then cook the finely chopped onion, stirring for 1 - 2 minutes. Add half of the fresh mushrooms and the crushed garlic to the pan and sprinkle with a little salt and pepper to taste.
5. Toss the mushrooms over high heat for 5 minutes or so, until the mushrooms are juicy and tender. Transfer to a bowl with the slotted spoon, then repeat with the remaining butter and mushrooms.
6. Make the white sauce. Melt the butter in a large saucepan, add the flour and cook, stirring over medium heat for 1 - 2 minutes.
7. Add the hot milk a little at the time, whisking well after each addition. Bring to a boil and cook, stirring, until the sauce is smooth and thick. Grate in fresh nutmeg to taste and season with a little salt and pepper. Whisk well, then remove the sauce from heat.
8. Place the tomato sauce in a blender or food processor with the reserved porcini soaking liquid and blend to a pureé.
Add the zucchini to the bowl of fried mushrooms, then stir in the porcini and marjoram.
9. Adjust the seasoning to taste, then spread a third of the tomato sauce in a baking pan. Add the half the vegetable mixture, spreading it evenly.
10. Top with about a third of a white sauce, then about a half the lasagne sheets. Repeat these layers, then top with the remaining tomato sauce and white sauce and sprinkle with the grated Parmesan cheese.
11. Bake the lasagne for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the pasta feels tender when pierced with the skewer. Allow standing for about 10 minutes before serving. If you like, sprinkle each serving with marjoram leaves.
The amount of pasta will depend on the size and shape of the pasta sheets and your baking dish. You may need to break pasta to fit.
This dish is time-consuming to prepare but well worth of effort. You can make the tomato sauce in advance and chill it for up to 2 days, until you are ready to assemble the lasagne, or you can freeze it. Make sure that you allow it to thaw completely before using.
