Courgette and ricotta pancake lasagne
Serves 4
1 pkt Quick Treats Pancake Mix
2 XL eggs
940ml water
10ml veg oil
Olive oil
2 cloves garlic, crushed
400 g of courgettes, finely sliced
1 can of whole Italian tomatoes, pureed
400 g ricotta
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
Handful of chopped fresh mint
Salt & pepper
Ingredients for the topping:
1 cup double cream Greek yoghurt
1 egg yolk
1 Tbs chopped fresh mint
Method:
- Mix up pancake batter according to the packet instructions.
- Fry each pancake, set aside in a stack.
- Pre-heat oven to 180 C.
- Over med-high heat, add olive oil to pan and add garlic and courgettes. Fry until golden, and season well.
- Turn heat down to med, then add pureed tomatoes. Simmer for 5-10 minutes. Remove from heat, then add mint.
- In a medium-sized round oven dish (roughly the same diameter as your pancakes), start by laying a pancake on the bottom of the dish. Spread with courgette mix, crumb over a bit of ricotta, sprinkle with parmesan, and repeat (use about 5-7 layers, ending with a pancake).
- Mix yoghurt with egg yolk and mint, then pour over the top. Bake for 30 minutes. Serve with a crisp green salad.
