Fried Lasagna Rolls
Fried lasagna is how we roll. Everything is better deep-fried, including lasagna.
Supplies
- 1 box lasagna noodles, cooked and drained
- 1/2 pounds lean ground beef
- 1/2 pounds Italian sausage, casing removed and crumbled
- 1/4 cup onion, diced
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 cup marinara sauce
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 eggs
- 1 cup Italian seasoned bread crumbs
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Oil for frying
Steps
- In a saucepan, brown beef and sausage with onion and garlic. Drain any excess fat. Then add tomato sauce, salt, and pepper. Simmer on medium-low heat for about 15 minutes. Set aside to cool.
- Once cooled, lay out cooked lasagna sheets on a flat surface.
- Sprinkle with mozzarella cheese and spread a few tablespoons of the meat sauce evenly.
- Make sure the mixture doesn't touch the edges of the pasta sheet.
- Sprinkle a little more mozzarella on top.
- Carefully roll into logs and place in the freezer for at least 2 hours.
- Heat oil to 375°F.
- Prep your dredging station: flour in one bowl, whisked eggs in another bowl, and bread crumbs in the final bowl.
- Coat each roll in flour, then dip in the eggs, and coat well with crumbs.
- Fry 2 rolls at a time until golden brown.
- Serve with more marinara sauce on the side.
