Preparation of Carasau Bread and Feta Lasagna

  • Pour the tomato puree into a bowl, then add half a teaspoon of sugar, 2 pinches of salt, garlic powder, dried oregano, and olive oil. Mix well to combine everything and set aside to let the flavors meld.

  • In the meantime, open the feta package, dry it with paper towels, and then crumble it with a fork.

  • Next, drain the black olives and slice them into rings.

  • Now that all ingredients are ready, it’s time to assemble the lasagna, starting by spreading a layer of tomato on the bottom of the baking dish, about 4 generous tablespoons.

    Then continue with a double layer of carasau bread.

  • Now add about 1/4 of crumbled feta, some olive rings, and a sprinkle of oregano.

  • Then proceed to make 2 more layers like this one. Finish with a layer of carasau.

  • Finally, make the top layer with only tomato puree, feta, and oregano.

    Bake in a preheated oven at 392°F for 20 minutes.

    Once cooked, turn off the oven and let rest for 5 minutes with the door slightly open.

  • And voilà… your carasau bread and feta lasagna is ready to be served at the table.

Useful Tips

I used black olives in brine, but you can also use Greek olives or baked olives if you prefer.

Before assembling the lasagna, taste and adjust the tomato puree to your liking, especially regarding garlic and salt.
