Provided by MariaGiovene

Categories     World Cuisine Recipes     European     Italian

Time 1h30m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 18

2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
3 eggs
1 ½ tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
½ teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 small onion, sliced
3 (6 ounce) cans tomato sauce
salt to taste
6 leaves fresh basil
1 bunch fresh spinach
2 tablespoons water
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
1 tablespoon butter
1 clove garlic, crushed
1 (7 ounce) container ricotta cheese
1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
3 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Place flour on a work surface and make a well in the center. Add eggs, 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Beat eggs using a fork, progressively incorporating the surrounding flour to make a sticky dough. Grease your hands with some oil and knead dough for 10 minutes into a smooth and soft ball. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a saucepan over medium-low heat and cook onion until soft and translucent, about 3 minutes. Add tomato sauce and increase heat to medium. Season with salt and cook, covered, until sauce starts to thicken, about 15 minutes. Add basil and remove from heat, but keep warm.
  • Combine spinach and water in a skillet over medium heat and cook until spinach is wilted, about 5 minutes. Drain spinach in a sieve and squeeze out as much liquid as possible. Return spinach to the skillet. Add Parmesan cheese, butter, and garlic; cook for 3 to 5 minutes. Discard garlic and allow spinach to cool.
  • Chop cooled spinach and combine with ricotta, nutmeg, salt, and pepper for the filling.
  • Remove pasta dough from the refrigerator and roll out on a clean work surface into a very thin rectangle. Spread spinach filling on top, leaving a 1/2-inch border on all 4 sides. Roll up dough from the long side and seal well on the edges so filling won't leak out.
  • Soak a large piece of parchment paper in water and squeeze out well. Wrap the lasagna roll with the damp parchment paper and tie up the ends like a piece of candy.
  • Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook lasagna roll in the boiling water for about 12 minutes. Drain. Discard parchment paper and let cool slightly.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Slice the lasagna roll into 1/2-inch pieces and place in a casserole dish. Cover with tomato sauce and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until cheese is melted, about 5 minutes.

Time 1h50m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 24

4 ounces pecorino romano cheese (2 cups) or 4 ounces parmesan cheese, grated (2 cups)
8 ounces cottage cheese (1 cup)
1/2 cup heavy cream
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 teaspoon cornstarch
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/4 cup olive oil
1 onion, chopped fine
1 1/2 teaspoons sugar
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon salt
4 cloves, garli minced
8 anchovy fillets, rinsed, patted dry, and minced
1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can diced tomatoes, drained
1 ounce pecorino romano cheese (1/2 cup) or 1 ounce parmesan cheese, grated (1/2 cup)
1/4 cup tomato paste
14 curly-edged lasagna noodles (dry packaged)
8 ounces Fontina cheese, shredded (2 cups total but divided into 4 half cups)
1/8 teaspoon cornstarch
1/4 cup pecorino romano cheese or 1/4 cup parmesan cheese, grated

Steps:

  • FOR THE CHEESE SAUCE: Whisk all ingredients in bowl until well combined; set aside.
  • FOR THE TOMATO SAUCE: Heat oil in large saucepan over medium heat. Add onion, sugar, pepper flakes, oregano and salt and cook, stirring frequently, until onions are softened, about 10 minutes. Add garlic and anchovies and cook until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Stir in crushed tomatoes, diced tomatoes, cheese and tomato paste; bring to simmer. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until slightly thickened, about 20 minutes.
  • FOR THE LASAGNA: While sauce simmers, lay noodles in 9 by 13-inch baking dish and cover with boiling water. Let noodles soak until pliable, about 15 minutes, separating noodles with tip of paring knife to prevent sticking. Place dish in sink, pour off water and run cold water over noodles. Pat noodles dry with clean dish towel; dry dish. Cut two noodles in half crosswise (short side).
  • Adjust oven rack to middle position and heat oven to 375 degrees. Spread 1 1/2 cups tomato sauce in bottom of dish. Lay 3 noodles lengthwise in dish with ends touching 1 short side of the pan, leaving space on opposite short side. Lay 1 half noodle crosswise in empty space to create even layer of noodles. Spread half of cheese sauce over noodles, followed by 1/2 cup fontina. Repeat layering of noodles, alternating which short side gets half noodle (alternating sides will prevent lasagna from buckling). Spread 1 1/2 cups tomato sauce over second layer of noodles, followed by 1/2 cup fontina. Create third layer using 3 1/2 noodles (reversing arrangement again), remaining cheese sauce, and 1/2 cup fontina.
  • Lay remaining 3 1/2 noodles over cheese sauce. Spread remaining tomato sauce over noodles. Toss remaining 1/2 cup fontina with 1/8 teaspoon cornstarch, then sprinkle over tomato sauce, followed by Pecorino.
  • Spray sheet of aluminum foil with vegetable oil spray and cover lasagna. Bake for 35 minutes. Remove lasagna from oven and increase oven temperature to 500 degrees.
  • Remove foil from lasagna, return to oven, and continue to bake until top is lightly browned, 10 to 15 minutes longer. Let lasagna cool for 20 minutes. Sprinkle with basil, cut into pieces, and serve.

QUICK TOMATO SOUP WITH GRILLED CHEESE



Quick Tomato Soup With Grilled Cheese image

When done well, this age-old combination can be exactly what you want. Here, the cooking is as easy as the eating: While you get the soup started in a pot with a can of tomatoes and little more than onion and butter (in the style of Marcella Hazan's famous tomato sauce), you assemble and pan-fry the sandwiches. The particular joy of these lies in their soft, quiet flavors: A thin layer of mayonnaise spread on the inside of the bread heats with the mozzarella, a mild cheese that lets you taste the bread and butter as they are. With a filling this rich and gooey, you want a delicate sweet enriched loaf like brioche or milk bread.

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 (28-ounce) can whole peeled tomatoes
3/4 cup chicken or vegetable broth, plus more as needed
1 large yellow onion, coarsely chopped
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 1/2 teaspoons dried oregano
1 teaspoon granulated sugar
Salt and black pepper
Mayonnaise
8 slices brioche or milk bread, crusts removed
1 cup shredded low-moisture mozzarella (4 ounces)
1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
2 tablespoons unsalted butter

Steps:

  • Make the soup: Dump the canned tomatoes and their juices into a medium pot and using your hands, tear into coarse chunks. Swish the broth in the empty tomato can and add to the pot.
  • Stir in the onion, butter, oregano and sugar and season generously with salt and pepper. Turn the heat to high and bring to a simmer. Reduce the heat to medium-low, cover and continue simmering, stirring occasionally, until the onion is tender and the tomatoes have broken down, 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, make the sandwiches: Spread a thin layer of mayonnaise on one side of each slice of bread and evenly sprinkle the cheese and a little oregano on the mayonnaise side of 4 slices. Top with the cheeseless slices, mayonnaise-side down.
  • Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a large skillet over medium. Add the sandwiches and cook until golden brown on the bottoms, 2 to 3 minutes. Melt the remaining tablespoon of butter in the pan, then flip the sandwiches with a spatula, move them around to coat with the butter and cook until the other side is golden brown and the cheese is melted, 1 to 2 minutes. Turn heat to lowest setting to keep sandwiches warm.
  • Carefully purée the tomato soup using a blender until smooth and creamy, adding more broth if needed to loosen to your desired consistency. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer the grilled cheeses to a cutting board and cut each in half diagonally. Serve alongside the soup.

THE ULTIMATE GRILLED CHEESE AND TOMATO SOUP BOWL RECIPE BY TASTY



The Ultimate Grilled Cheese And Tomato Soup Bowl Recipe by Tasty image

Here's what you need: unsalted butter, large yellow onion, garlic, crushed tomato, chicken broth, heavy cream, salt, pepper, white bread, butter, garlic, large egg, cheddar cheese, olive oil, dried oregano, pepper, salt

Provided by Katie Aubin

Categories     Lunch

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

3 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 large yellow onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
15 oz crushed tomato, 1 can
2 cups chicken broth
¼ cup heavy cream
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon pepper
11 slices white bread
2 tablespoons butter, melted, plus more for greasing bowl
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 large egg, beaten
7 slices cheddar cheese
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 teaspoons dried oregano
½ teaspoon pepper
1 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Make the tomato soup: melt the butter in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the onion and stir for 6-8 minutes, until the onions just start to brown.
  • Add the garlic and stir for another minute. Stir in the crushed tomatoes, chicken broth, heavy cream, salt, and pepper.
  • Bring the soup to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes.
  • Remove the soup from heat and transfer to a blender. Remove vent so that steam can escape. Blend for 2 minutes, until the soup is smooth and thick. Alternatively, leave the soup in the pot and use an immersion blender.
  • Make the grilled cheese bowl: cut the crusts off the bread and set aside in a medium bowl.
  • Arrange the bread slices into 3 lines: a line of 5, a line of 4, and a line of 2.
  • In a small bowl, combine the melted butter and garlic and use a brush to spread the mixture over each piece of bread.
  • Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
  • Brush the bottom of each slice in egg wash and then dab the bottom of each piece of bread in the line of 5 and the line of 4. Dab all four sides of the bread in the group of 2. Overlap the edges of the 5 pieces of bread, then press the edges together to adhere. Repeat with the line of 4.
  • In a greased medium oven-safe bowl, place one of the single slices of bread. Then, take the line of 5 slices and make it into a circle on the inside of the bowl. Press down the edges to adhere to the piece of bread at the bottom of the bowl.
  • Cover the bread with 6 slices of cheese. Lay the remaining single slice of bread over the cheese, then make a circle with the line of 4 slices of bread, pressing to seal the edges and adhere to the bread below. Lay the remaining slice of cheese on the bottom.
  • Using a small bowl, press down on the bread bowl to compress slightly.
  • Bake for 15 minutes, until the bread is golden brown.
  • Make the crouton fries: Add the olive oil, oregano, pepper, and salt to the bowl with the crusts. Toss until thoroughly coated. Transfer the crusts to a large baking sheet.
  • Bake for 5 minutes, until the crusts are golden brown.
  • Remove the bowl and crouton fries from oven. Use tongs to move the bread bowl from the bowl to a serving dish. Fill with tomato soup.
  • Enjoy!

Nutrition Facts :

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients, the better the lasagna will taste. Use fresh vegetables, flavorful cheese, and a hearty bread.
  • Don't overcook the noodles: The noodles should be cooked al dente, or slightly firm to the bite. If you overcook them, they will become mushy and the lasagna will be difficult to slice.
  • Layer the lasagna properly: The order of the layers is important. Start with a layer of noodles, then a layer of sauce, then a layer of cheese, and so on. Repeat this process until you have used up all of the ingredients.
  • Bake the lasagna at a high temperature: This will help to create a crispy crust on top of the lasagna.
  • Let the lasagna rest before slicing: This will allow the flavors to meld together and the lasagna to set. Slice the lasagna into squares and serve with a side of tomato soup.

Conclusion:

Grilled cheese and tomato soup lasagna is a delicious and comforting dish that is perfect for a cold winter day. It is easy to make and can be customized to your own liking. With its combination of melted cheese, savory tomato soup, and crispy bread, this lasagna is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
