Method

Prepare filling

  1. 1

    Mix cheese filling

    In a bowl, combine ricotta, mozzarella, Parmesan, egg, chopped parsley, salt, and pepper until smooth. Set aside.

Prepare noodles and parboil

  1. 2

    Boil water for noodles

    In a large pot, bring 6 cups of water to a rolling boil and add 1 tsp salt.

  2. 3

    Parboil lasagna sheets

    Add lasagna sheets to the boiling water and cook until flexible but not fully tender, about 2-3 minutes. Remove and drain on towels.

Assemble bites

  1. 4

    Cut and fill

    Cut sheets into rectangles about 3x4 inches. Place a line of filling along one edge, roll tightly to form a cylinder, and secure with a toothpick.

Coat and fry

  1. 5

    Dredge station setup

    Place flour in a shallow bowl. Whisk eggs with milk in a second bowl. Mix breadcrumbs with grated Parmesan in a third bowl.

  2. 6

    Dredge and fry

    Dip each lasagna roll in flour, then in egg wash, then in breadcrumb mixture. Heat vegetable oil in a deep skillet to 350°F (175°C). Fry batches until golden brown, 2-3 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels.

Serve

    Warm sauce and plate
