  • Author: Kimberly
  • Total Time: 2 hours 50 min
  • Yield: 10 1x

Description

RECOMMENDED EQUIPMENT

  • baking pan (I used a 28x8cm / 11”x3” loaf pan)
  • large bowl
  • measuring cup
  • plastic wrap (or kitchen towel)
  • small bowl
  • sharp knife
  • cutting board
  • garlic press
  • rolling pin

Ingredients

Units Scale

DOUGH

  • 600 grams all-purpose flour
  • 42 grams fresh yeast
  • 2 tsp sugar
  • 2 tsp salt
  • 50 milliliters oil of your choice (I used cold-pressed rapeseed oil)
  • 350 milliliters lukewarm water

FILLING

  • 5 garlic cloves
  • 30 grams fresh herbs (I used thyme, oregano, basil, rosemary & parsley)
  • 125 grams soft butter
  • salt & pepper

Instructions

  1. For the dough, mix flour, sugar, and salt in a large bowl. In a measuring cup, measure out the lukewarm water, crumble in the fresh yeast, and stir until the yeast dissolves. Add the yeast water and olive oil to the flour-sugar-salt mixture and mix until a sticky dough forms. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a damp towel and set aside for 10 minutes.
  2. With a wet hand, grab one side of the dough, lift it up, and fold it into the middle. Repeat with the other three sides. Let the dough rest for another 10 minutes, then repeat the folding process and let the dough rise, covered, for 1 hour.
  3. Meanwhile, prepare the filling. Finely chop the herbs and peel the garlic cloves, then either finely chop them or use a garlic press. In a small bowl, mix the softened butter, herbs, garlic, salt, and pepper into a paste and set aside (do not refrigerate, the butter should remain spreadable). Prepare the baking pan by either greasing it with a bit of butter or lining it with parchment paper, and set aside.
  4. After the dough has risen for an hour, perform one final round of folding and let it rise, covered, for another hour.
  5. Turn the dough out onto a clean, lightly floured surface and roll it out into a rectangle about 1/2” thick. Spread the butter-garlic-herb paste evenly over the dough. Cut the dough into strips about 8cm / 3” wide. Fold each strip like an accordion and place them upright in the baking pan with the buttered side facing up. Repeat with all the strips, pressing the dough snugly into the pan. Preheat the oven to 200°C / 392°F. Bake the dough for about 30 minutes. Serve warm or let cool. And now enjoy this piece of happiness 🙂

FOR 250ml (1 CUP)

BASIL OIL

  • 75g fresh basil leaves (1.7 oz)
  • 250ml neutral cooking oil (1 cup)
Basil Oil
}

ACTIVE: –

PASSIVE: –

PREPARATIONS

Recommended Equipment
  • blender
  • medium-sized saucepan
  • whisk
  • a bowl into which the medium saucepan fits
  • 2 medium-sized bowls
  • fine sieve
  • sealable container
  • ice cubes
  • coffee filter
  • none
}

ACTIVE: 15 min

PASSIVE: 60 min

COOKING

1. Separate the leaves from the stems and put the leaves into the blender. Pour in the oil. Blend on the highest setting until it becomes bright green and no pieces of basil are longer visible.

2. Pour the mixture from the blender into a medium-sized pot and heat it over medium heat, constantly stirring, to a temperature of about 102°-103°C (215°-217°F). Then, let the oil simmer with the lid partially on for the next 10 minutes. Stir only occasionally, making sure the temperature remains steady. This cooking time is essential for all the water to evaporate, allowing the perishable solids to settle at the bottom and the dark green oil to float on top. You’ll know all the water has evaporated when the oil in the pot barely bubbles anymore – so if it’s still bubbling vigorously, keep it simmering.

3. Meanwhile, prepare a bowl large enough to fit the medium-sized pot, filled with cold water and a handful of ice cubes. Also, hang a fine sieve strainer over a medium-sized bowl.

4. Now, place the pot in the ice water and stir to stop the cooking process. Once the oil is no longer boiling and is almost cold, remove the pot from the water and pour the oil into the fine sieve to catch the coarse particles.

5. Then, rinse the strainer and hang it over the second medium-sized bowl. Press a coffee filter into the strainer and pour the captured oil into the coffee filter, so that the remaining perishable and coarser particles are caught.

6. Allow the oil to drip through for about 1 hour or maybe more depending on how many remaining particles are in there. Once all the oil has passed through the coffee filter, transfer the collected amount into a sealable container or directly into an oil bottle. Store in the refrigerator for up to one week.

INGREDIENTS

FOR 6 PORTIONS

LASAGNA

  • 1 liter Béchamel sauce
    (but use 70g butter (2.5 oz), 70g flour (2.5 oz) & 1 liter (4 cups) milk)
  • 20 lasagna sheets
  • 100g parmesan, grated (1 cup)
  • 50g cheddar cheese, grated (1/2 cup)

VEGETABLES

  • 1 brokkoli (230g / 8 oz)
  • 200g baby spinach (7 oz)
  • 2 leeks (250g / 8 oz)
  • 180g green olives (6 oz)
  • 200ml vegetable stock (1 cup)

  • 2 garlic cloves
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • juice of 1 lemon
  • salt & pepper to taste

PASSIVE: –

PREPARATIONS

Recommended Equipment
  • sharp knife
  • cutting board
  • medium-sized pot
  • baking dish (my used measurements were 20x26cm (8×10 inch))
  • aluminum foil
  • Peel shallots, halve them, and slice thinly.
  • Peel garlic cloves and either press or finely chop them.
  • Halve the leek, wash, and cut into fine strips.
  • Cut the broccoli florets, wash, and if necessary, chop into bite-sized pieces.
  • Slice the olives.
  • Cut the basil into fine strips.
  • Grate the Parmesan and Cheddar cheese.
  • Prepare the béchamel sauce. I used 70g (2.5 oz) butter, 70g (2.5 oz) flour, and 1 liter (4 cups) milk, since lasagna needs a more liquidy sauce to ensure the pasta sheets soften in the oven.
}

ACTIVE: 20 min

PASSIVE: 45 min

COOKING

1. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a medium-sized pot over medium heat. Cook the shallots until soft. Then add the leek and garlic. Mix well and cook until soft for a few minutes.

2. Add broccoli, olives, and basil, then pour in the vegetable broth. Cover and let it cook for 5-10 minutes, so the broccoli becomes tender but still has a bit of a bite.

3. Remove the lid and add the spinach and lemon juice. Stir everything once and let the spinach wilt slightly. Season with salt and pepper.

4. Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F).

5. Now it’s time to layer the lasagna. Start with two large ladles of sauce at the bottom of your baking dish. Spread the sauce evenly. Then add a layer of pasta sheets. Next, spread a portion of the vegetables evenly. Follow with a layer of finely grated Parmesan. Continue in the following order: pasta sheets, béchamel, vegetables, Parmesan until all the vegetables (including the liquid in the pot) are used up. Finish with a final layer of pasta sheets and spread the remaining béchamel sauce over them completely. Finally, sprinkle 50g of grated Cheddar on top.

Here’s the entire sequence more efficiently: Sauce, pasta sheets, vegetables, Parmesan, pasta sheets, sauce, vegetables, Parmesan, pasta sheets, sauce, vegetables, Parmesan, pasta sheets, sauce, Cheddar.

6. Cover the dish with a layer of aluminum foil and bake in the oven for 25 minutes. After 25 minutes, remove the foil and bake for another 20 minutes, or until the cheese is crispy and golden brown.

7. Let the lasagna rest for 10 minutes, then enjoy.
