Lasagna Alla Vodka
Wonton wrappers are the secret to this delicate lasagna preparation.
Ingredients
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon butter
1/2 medium onion, minced
1 clove garlic, minced
1/3 cup vodka
5 ounces tomato puree
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/4 teaspoon salt
Freshly ground black pepper
18 wonton wrappers
Nonstick cooking spray
8 ounces burrata with truffles
6 large fresh basil leaves
6 tablespoons shredded mozzarella
6 tablespoons grated Parmesan
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350F.
To make the vodka sauce, add olive oil and butter to a large skillet over medium heat. When butter is melted, add onion and garlic and sauté for two minutes.
Add vodka, stir, and cook for 3 minutes. Reduce heat to low and add tomato puree and cream. Stir and simmer for 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper and set aside.
Press a 3-inch biscuit or cookie cutter into each wonton wrapper to create 18 wonton rounds.
Apply a thin layer of cooking spray to a 6-cup silicone muffin pan.
Pour a tablespoon of vodka sauce in the well of each muffin cup, followed by one wonton round. Top each wonton round with 1-2 teaspoons of burrata and 1 basil leaf.
Top with another wonton round, more sauce, and the remaining burrata. Top each muffin cup with remaining wonton rounds, a teaspoon more sauce, a tablespoon of mozzarella, and a tablespoon of Parmesan.
Bake for 20 minutes; then allow to cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes, until each Lasagna Alla Vodka easily removes from the pan.
