Time 7h

Yield Six servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

28 medium-size plum tomatoes, core end cut off, halved lengthwise
2 teaspoons olive oil
1 teaspoon kosher salt
Freshly ground pepper to taste
2 large baking potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced
1 teaspoon olive oil
2 cloves garlic, peeled and minced
5 teaspoons chopped fresh rosemary
6 heads kale, stemmed and coarsely chopped (about 24 cups)
2 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1 15-ounce container skim-milk ricotta
1 egg, beaten
Freshly ground pepper to taste
Olive oil spray
9 lasagna noodles, cooked and drained well
3 tablespoons grated hard ricotta salata

Steps:

  • To make the tomatoes, preheat the oven to 200 degrees. Using a pastry brush, brush the skin side of the tomatoes with the olive oil. Place skin side down on a large baking sheet. Sprinkle with the salt and pepper to taste. Bake until they shrink to about a quarter of their original size, about 4 to 6 hours; they should remain soft and juicy. Let the tomatoes cool on the baking sheet. Quarter the tomatoes and set aside.
  • To make the lasagna, bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add the potato slices and blanch for 7 minutes. Drain and set aside. Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the garlic and rosemary and cook for 30 seconds. Add the kale to the pot, stir once and cover with a lid. Cook for 12 minutes. Stir in 1 1/2 teaspoons of salt and the pepper flakes.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Whisk together the ricotta, egg, remaining salt and pepper to taste. Spray an 11-by-7-inch baking dish with the olive oil. Line the bottom of the dish with 3 of the noodles, trimming them to fit if necessary. Spread the noodles with half of the ricotta mixture. Spread 3 cups of the kale mixture over the ricotta. Layer half of the potatoes over the kale and scatter with 3/4 cup of the tomato pieces. Repeat the layers, ending with remaining noodles.
  • Spread the remaining kale mixture over the noodles. Sprinkle with the ricotta salata and the remaining tomato pieces. Cover with aluminum foil. Bake for 30 minutes. Cut into 6 pieces, place on a plate and serve.

This lasagna was a disaster! The noodles were mushy and the sauce was bland. I followed the recipe exactly but it still turned out terrible. I will not be making this again.

This lasagna was a bit bland for my taste. I added some extra spices and it was much better. I also think it would be better with a different type of cheese. Overall, it was a good recipe but it needs a few tweaks.

I'm not a big fan of kale, but I decided to give this lasagna a try anyway. I'm so glad I did! The kale added a nice flavor to the lasagna and it wasn't overpowering at all. The lasagna was also very easy to make and it was a hit with my guests.
