Vegan Lasagna Recipe

Ingredients

  • 16 lasagna sheets
  • 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 large onion & 4 cloves garlic (crushed & minced)
  • 700gm vegan meatless meat mince
  • 700 gm tomatoes & 170gm tomato paste
  • 2 tsp oregano (or basil)
  • 1 tsp red pepper flakes
  • 3 cups vegetable stock
  • Salt and ground pepper to taste
  • 2 packets of Katharos'&nbspvegan mozzarella (shredded)

Method

  • If using regular lasagna sheets, cook them in salted boiling water until al dente but not mushy.
  • Make the meat sauce by heating the oil in a large saucepan. Add the onions and garlic. Saute until they soften, about five minutes. Add the "meat" mince and saute for a couple of minutes. Add the tomato paste and mix in.
  • Put the tomatoes in a bowl and squish them to break with your fingers. Add to the saucepan along with 3 cups of vegetable stock.
  • Stir well, boil, and add the oregano, red pepper flakes, salt, and ground black pepper to taste. Stir and let the sauce cook for about 15 minutes or until it turns a bright red. Turn off the heat and check to season. Set aside.
  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Assemble the lasagna by spraying a 12 X 9-inch pan with cooking spray or oil. Ladle out a small amount of sauce into the pan and spread.
  • Layer four sheets of pasta into the bottom of the pan.
  • Layer one-fourth of the meat sauce over the lasagna sheets.
  • Layer on one-fourth of the vegan mozzarella.
  • Repeat until you have built up three layers of the meat sauce and the cheese. Over the fourth and final layer, layer the remaining meat sauce and mozzarella.
  • Cover tightly with aluminium foil, place the lasagna pan on a rimmed baking sheet, and bake in the oven for 30 minutes. After 30 minutes, remove the aluminium foil and bake another 30 minutes until bubbly and hot.
  • Let the lasagna stand for at least 15 minutes to firm up, then cut and serve.
