Every recipe for homemade pasta calls for eggs, since i decided to make a vegetarian lasagna, i thought of making a vegan pasta sheet as well. So i stumbled upon this recipe and adapted it slightly as per my taste and preference and the pasta sheet turned out to be a success. I made most of it into lasagna sheet and made a small batch of linguine, cooked it for few mins and tossed that fresh pasta in a homemade tomato sauce. My 2 year daughter just loved it.
Preparation Time : 30 mins
Makes : 20 to 25 lasagna sheets
All Purpose Flour / Maida – 1 cup
Wheat Flour / Atta – 1/2 cup
Water a little less than 3/4 cup
Method:
Take a bowl, add in wheat flour and maida in a bowl. Mix well using a fork.
Add in water slowly and use the fork to mix it to a dough. Knead it for few mins to make it smooth.
Now let it rest for 10 mins.
Now divide it into two portion. Roll each one into a pretty thin square. Cut it in half and now roll each half into long thin sheets.
Use the pan which you are making lasagna as guideline and cut it accordingly.
Now cut into shapes like lasagna or thin strips for linguine..Dust generously with flour between them and set aside till use.
How to cook:
Bring lots of water to boil, add salt to it.
Drop pasta in and cook for 2 to 4 mins depending on the thickness of pasta.
Drain and toss into your favourite sauce.
Serve hot.

wowww!!!Super
thank you for showing us how to make it ourselves. it looks splendid 🙂
How can we save this?plzz tell
@Anonymousu can store this in fridge for couple of days
can v add egg with it?
Proper lasagne pasta HAS to have egg in it. This is a vegan version, hence the lack of egg. Of course it will never taste as good as the real thing… or have the same texture.. but if one is a vegan there is no other option.
@Christopher Ponnuchamyyes u can add a egg in it
Thanks for the recipe. Do we need to boil lasagna before assembling?
@Anonymousyes u have to boil it
Thank you so much for this recipe. I kept searching for eggless lasagna recipes and landed on your page. The lasagna sheets came out pretty well. I am sure with practice I can get them better 🙂
This is my dish, with credit to you… http://akshayam21.blogspot.com/2015/11/veg-lasagna.html
Hi Arthi,
I bought borcam casserole it have wave like pattern on bottom I dono whether its safe to bake or its defective one
@Anonymousnot sure about it.
Possible to do it in homemade wheat flour without maida?
@Anonymousit will make it more sticky
Actually I made it with homemade wheat flour but it turned out to be very nice …my hubby liked it a lot… Thanks Arthi for giving clear ideas
Hi! really nice one..
Can we store these lasagna sheets in freeze.
@Anonymousi think u can store it in freezer before cooking, lay it between sheets of parchment paper and lay flat in freezer.
Hi,
Thanks for the wonderful recipe. One doubt, when I took the sheets from boiling water after cooking, it comes torn. What to do to prevent this ?
@Krishnacook it carefull and remove it using a spoon and place it in a colander..dont use your hands
Hi aarthi if we want to store these sheets in fridge do we need to boil it or we can freeze it as its and boil it when we will use it to cook lasangna???
Hi aarthi..can we put all sheets together in boiling water as u put noodles or need to put one by one….I think all together will stuck with each other. Please suggest…
@Ravinder kauru can freeze as it is, between layers of parchment, then you can defrost and cook before making lasgna
@Ravinder kauru can put 3 to 4 at a time. use a bigger pot
Thanks dear
I tried this and it was yummy….my whole family just loved it….thanks dear
Wow this actually looks to die for. Thanks so much for this recipe. Will be making this on the weekend..
