By
La Cuisine de Géraldine

How to form Lasagna Rolls?

For this recipe, you need a special type of pasta: it is long strips of lasagna about 5 cm by 20 cm called Lasagna Riccia. To prepare the rolls, you must first cook the pasta, otherwise you will not be able to roll it. Cook them for 1-2 minutes less than indicated on the package. Check that they do not break before draining them. Then, drain them and run them under cold water to stop cooking while you prepare the rolls. If the pasta sticks a little, iron it under water, it will come off without being damaged. Finally, drop a spoonful of the filling on the dough and roll the strip of lasagna on itself. I then placed the rolls in a dish with tomato sauce and mozzarella and then baked them in the oven for another 30 minutes.
