Pumpkin Lasagna Recipe Rachael Ray

Pumpkin Lasagna comprises the most delicious layers and is an ultimate symbol of the deliciousness of Italian cuisine. The layers of pasta, cheese, and sauce make the lasagna classic and worth eating. Moreover, pumpkin lasagna is a new recipe to make lasagna at home, and not most people are aware of it.

Do not overlayer or overfill the layers and prevent adding too much sauce as your lasagna will get runny this way. Avoid adding wet noodles to the lasagna and cool it enough before slicing.

Steps to make Pumpkin Lasagna by Rachael Ray

  10. Make one more layer of pasta and spread the Bechamel sauce along with a half cup of Parmigiano.

FAQs?

Can we bake the lasagna uncovered?

Firstly you have to bake the lasagna after being covered with the foil. Then in the second shift, uncover it and bake it for 15 more minutes to brown the top layer and make it crispy.

Why the top layer of lasagna gets tough?

Usually, the top layer gets a little hard after baking. To prevent it from getting hard, apply some oil before the final layer. This oil will keep it moist and help prevent it from drying out.
