Wrap this folded dough again with a cling wrap and refrigerate for 20 minutes..

Spread another 1/4 cup margarine evenly.

Now start folding over the ends to make another 3 layers.

Cling wrap the dough and refrigerate for another 15 minutes..

  1. Likewise repeat this rolling, folding, refrigerating for another 3 times to get layers. Totally 6 times.

Toss and mix all together until well combined and pasta looks glossy and sauce coated. The pasta shouldn’t be watery as we gonna use it as a filling.

Try breaking the fusili but don’t mash completely.

Remove from the heat and cool the mixture..

  1. Now get ready with the lasagna sheets, puff pastry sheets, pasta parmigiana filling.

Now roll the pastry sheets gently once to level the surface and size. Place one full lasagna sheet on top. I didn’t cut my long sheets. Lasagna sheet is longer than the puff sheets. I filled one side and used the rest to wrap and seal.

Sprinkle cheddar cheese at the center of the sheet that is on the pastry sheet.

  1. My Tip:

These puff pastry sheets could be frozen which stays good for three months. Just thaw them slightly / bring to room temperature completely before use. Adjust salt as pasta and lasagna needs salt while boiling in the first place..

Dollop half of ricotta cheese evenly on eggplant in dish; top with half of mozzarella.Repeat layers with remaining noodles, one-third sauce mixture, remaining eggplant, and remaining ricotta.However, I preferred the Vegan Eggplant Lasagna, as the true flavor of the eggplants and tomato sauce seemed to prevail.

And don't forget to browse the photo gallery above; you'll find some advice to make it even better!Lightly oil two large rimmed baking sheets.Beat the egg and egg whites together in a shallow bowl.Place the bread crumbs and flour in separate shallow bowls.The preparation of the eggplant makes all the difference.
