Lasagne

The bear and lemur more or less piscatarian experiment continues. I haven't eat mammal or bird since last Saturday night.

Today I'm riffing on the theme of a vegetarian lasagne I cooked a few weeks ago. The layers are:

tomato sauce (1) and grilled eggplant
fresh pasta
"green" sauce (2) and roasted peppers

repeat for total three pasta layers and top with Parmesan.

(1) Just a touch spicy. I used one chipotle and one New Mexico pepper in 2x28oz cans of tomatoes worth of sauce.

(2) 2 bunches of spinach, blanched, a the leaves from a largish bunch of basil, 500g ricotta, some extra virgin olive oil, 5 cloves garlic, salt, pepper and nutmeg all whooshed to a puree in the food processor.

This should get about half an hour in a hot oven.
