Cooking Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 200°C.
- Toss the butternut with 3 tablespoons of olive oil, salt and black pepper and spread on 2 rimmed baking sheets. Roast for about 15 minutes until tender. Allow to cool.
- Blanch the Swiss chard just until it wilts. Drain and cool under running water, squeeze out the excess water and coarsely chop. Toss with salt, pepper and olive oil.
- Mix the mozzarella, ricotta, 1 cup of Parmesan, lemon zest, sage and rosemary in a large bowl and season with salt and pepper.
- Boil the lasagne sheets for about 8 minutes until al dente.
- Cool in a bowl of ice water, then drain and lay out on a kitchen towels, placing kitchen towels between the pasta sheets.
- To assemble the lasagne, spoon ¼ cup of cheese sauce evenly into the base of a 33 x 23 x 5 cm baking dish, top with a layer of lasagne sheets, 1/3 of the butternut, followed by 1/3 of the Swiss chard, 1/3 of the ricotta mixture and lastly ½ cup of cheese sauce. Repeat the process 2 more times to create a total of 3 layers, finishing with a layer of lasagne. Spread the remaining cheese sauce on top and sprinkle with ¾ cup of Parmesan.
- Bake uncovered for 45 minutes until starting to brown on top. Brown under the grill until golden.
