Deep Fried Lasagna Pieces Recipes

Steps:

• Set a wire rack inside a baking sheet.
• Cut the chilled lasagna into 12 equal pieces, then cut the pieces into 4 triangles, for a total of 48 pieces. Set the triangles on the wire rack and cover with plastic wrap. Freeze for at least 4 hours, until solid.
• Heat the vegetable oil in a large heavy-bottomed pot fitted with a deep fry thermometer over medium heat until it reaches 350°F (180°C).
• Add the flour, eggs, and bread crumbs to 3 separate shallow bowls.
• Remove the lasagna triangles from the freezer and dredge in the flour, then the eggs, then the bread crumbs.
• Working in batches, fry the lasagna triangles in the hot oil for approximately 1 minute, until golden brown. Transfer to a paper towel-lined baking sheet to drain and let cool for about 10 minutes.
• Serve the lasagna bites warm with marinara sauce alongside.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Cook lasagna noodles according to package directions for al dente. In a large bowl, combine ricotta, 1-1/4 cups Italian cheese blend, mozzarella, 2 eggs and 3 teaspoons Italian seasoning. Drain noodles. If desired, cut off ribboned edges (discard or save for another use). Spread about 1/4 cup filling on each noodle. Starting with a short side, fold each in thirds. Place all on a parchment-lined baking sheet, seam side down. Freeze just until firm, about 1 hour., In an electric skillet or deep fryer, heat oil to 375°. In a shallow bowl, mix bread crumbs, 2/3 cup Italian cheese blend and 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning. Place remaining 4 eggs in separate shallow bowl. Dip lasagna bundles into eggs, then into crumb mixture, patting to help coating adhere., Fry bundles in batches until golden brown, 8-10 minutes, turning once. Drain on paper towels. Serve with marinara, Alfredo, the remaining Italian cheese blend and, if desired, additional Italian seasoning.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of water to a boil and add the pasta, cook for 6 minutes, then drain and spread out on a sheet pan to cool.
• Heat a large saute pan with 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add sausage, ground beef and onions; saute for 3 minutes. Add the Italian seasoning, basil and black pepper. Cook for about 8 more minutes, until the meat has browned. Stir in 1/2 cup of canned tomato sauce and cook until heated through. Set mixture aside to cool in a large bowl.
• Add the rest of the canned sauce into saute pan and stir in the red pepper flakes.
• Fold the mozzarella and cottage cheese and into the cooled meat mixture. Stuff each cannelloni shell with the meat mixture and then place the shells in the freezer for 5 minutes to firm up. When ready to fry, slice shells into thirds.
• Preheat oil to 350 degrees F.
• Place the flour, eggs and bread crumbs into separate bowls.
• Dredge the shells in the flour, then eggs, and then bread crumbs.
• Fry the bites until they are golden brown and crispy; about 4 to 5 minutes. Drain on paper towels and serve with the spicy tomato sauce.
