Watch the video: The classic reinterpreted – delicious asparagus lasagne for spring.

The asparagus season has begun. There are more and more recipes based on vegetables. Be it as a pasta dish, salad or soup – asparagus can be used in a variety of ways.

This asparagus lasagna is also a new way to use the fresh vegetables. Not only is it delicious, it is also easy to prepare.

For the recipe you will need:
400g green and white asparagus
1 onion
80g butter
80g flour
500 ml asparagus stock
500 ml milk
½ lemon
Nutmeg, salt and pepper to season
Lasagna sheets
As well as grated cheese of your choice

First of all, you need to wash the asparagus and cut off the woody ends. Additionally peel the white asparagus.

The asparagus is now cooked for about five minutes. For more flavor, you can prepare a decoction – from water, salt, sugar, lemon juice and a bay leaf. If you don’t have these ingredients on hand, cook the asparagus in salted water as usual and then let it cool down a bit.

You can now preheat the oven to 180 degrees.

At the same time you can prepare the béchamel sauce. To do this, the onions are finely diced and sautéed in melted butter until translucent. The flour is then stirred in and the whole thing is then poured in with milk and the asparagus water. Mix everything well until you get a creamy consistency. Finally season with the spices.

Now it’s time to layer the lasagne. First the sauce, then lasagna sheets and finally the asparagus. Repeat this until all of your ingredients are used up and finally sprinkle the cheese on top.

The lasagna needs to bake in the oven for about 35 minutes. When the cheese is crispy and golden brown, it’s time to take the lasagne out of the oven and enjoy.

Lasagna can be done differently – a classic reinterpreted. We wish a good appetite.
