Instructions

  • 1.   Prepare the béchamel sauce: Heat the milk in a saucepan. In another saucepan, melt the butter over low heat, then add the flour all at once.
  • 2.   Gently mix with a whisk until a smooth "roux" is obtained.
  • 3.   Gradually incorporate the hot milk, stirring constantly with a whisk until a thick and creamy mixture is obtained. Adjust the salt, pepper, and nutmeg, then set aside.
  • 4.   Finely chop the onion and sauté it in a pan with a little olive oil. Add the zucchinis, previously washed and cut into uniform pieces, and cook for about 12 minutes (stirring often).
  • 5.   Deglaze with the white wine and let it evaporate completely. Continue cooking until the zucchinis are slightly golden. Adjust the salt and pepper, then set aside.
  • 6.   Assemble the lasagna: Spread a thin layer of béchamel sauce on the bottom of the baking dish. Then, place the first layer of lasagna sheets.
  • 7.   Add a few spoonfuls of zucchinis, some béchamel, chopped mozzarella, and finish with a generous sprinkling of parmesan. Proceed in the same manner, creating other layers.
  • 8.   Finish with a final layer, smoothing the béchamel with a spatula. Generously sprinkle grated parmesan and place a few pieces of mozzarella. Finally, cover the surface with the remaining zucchinis.
  • 9.   Bake in a preheated oven at 200°C for about 25 minutes. Once ready, let the zucchini lasagna rest for at least 5 minutes before serving!
