ROSEMARY-ROASTED VEG
Boil the kettle. Preheat the oven to 200°C. Spread the butternut half-moons, butternut pieces & carrot pieces, the rinsed rosemary and the onion wedges on a roasting tray. Coat in oil and season. Roast in the hot oven until golden, 25-30 minutes (shifting halfway). Dilute the stock with 20ml of hot water.
MAKE IT SAUCY
Once the veg is finished, remove and set the roasted butternut half-moons aside. Remove and discard the rosemary, then transfer the roasted butternut pieces, carrot and onion to a blender with the diluted stock and pulse until smooth. Season and set aside.
CREAMY & CHEESY
Place the ricotta into a bowl and whisk it together with the milk, ½ the chopped oregano, 1 egg yolk and ½ of the grated cheese. Season and set aside.
ASSEMBLE
Place a ¼ of the butternut sauce in the bottom of a small, ovenproof dish. Evenly top with ⅓ of the roasted butternut half-moons, ⅓ of the lasagne sheets, ⅓ of the ricotta mix, and another ¼ of the sauce. Repeat with the remaining butternut half-moons, lasagne sheets, ricotta mix, and sauce to create two more layers. Sprinkle over the remaining grated cheese. Bake in the oven until the lasagne is bubbling and the cheese is starting to brown, 10-12 minutes.
TOASTED SEEDS
Place the pumpkin seeds in a pan over medium heat. Toast until golden brown, 3-4 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and set aside.
