Nothing says simple and convenient like this affordable one-pan recipe. Boasting delicious Italian flavours, this spinach and ricotta rotolo will impress with every bite.
INGREDIENTS:
800g Woolworths diced tomatoes with onion, garlic & basil
500g frozen chopped spinach, thawed
500g fresh ricotta
1/2 cup breadcrumbs
2 cups shredded tasty cheese
2 free range eggs
2 spring onions, finely chopped
2 cloves garlic, crushed
4 sheets fresh lasagne
1/2 cup no-added-salt tomato paste
2 tbs chopped continental parsley
METHOD:
Preheat oven to 200⁰C / 180⁰C fan-forced. Spread half of the diced tomato over base of a 1.5L (6-cup) 24cm (top) large non-stick frying pan dish.
Using hands, squeeze any excess liquid from spinach, then place in a large bowl. Add ricotta, half of the cheese, breadcrumbs, eggs, onion and garlic. Mix well and season.
To make 6 rotolo at a time, spread a sheet with 1 1/2 tbs tomato paste. Spread one-quarter of the ricotta mixture over sheet, leaving a 1cm border. Roll up, from long side, to enclose filling and form a log. Cut into 6 equal lengths. Arrange standing upright, cut-side down, side by side in prepared pan. Repeat with remaining sheets, tomato paste and ricotta mixture to make 24 rotolo in total.
Spoon remaining tomato around rotolo in pan. Cover, then bake for 20 minutes. Uncover, sprinkle with remaining cheese and bake for a further 20 minutes or until golden-brown and bubbling. Remove from oven. Stand for 5 minutes. Serve sprinkled with parsley.
