5 steps
Prepare the filling
In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add garlic and sauté until fragrant. Add mushrooms and spinach, cooking until softened. Stir in chestnuts, ricotta, and nutmeg. Season with salt and pepper.
Ensure mushrooms are well cooked to release moisture.Roll the lasagna
Lay out a lasagna sheet and spread a portion of the filling evenly. Roll it up tightly to form a log. Repeat with remaining sheets and filling.
Keep the rolls tight to prevent them from unrolling during cooking.Prepare the baking dish
Spread a thin layer of tomato sauce on the bottom of a baking dish.
This prevents the rotolo from sticking to the dish.Assemble the rotolo
Place the rolled lasagna in the dish seam-side down. Pour remaining tomato sauce over the top and sprinkle with parmesan cheese.
Cover the rolls completely with sauce for even cooking.Bake
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Bake the rotolo for 25-30 minutes until heated through and cheese is bubbly.
Cover with foil for the first 15 minutes to prevent over-browning.
