Directions

Bring a pot of salted water to a boil.
Wash the asparagus and cut off the woody part of the stalk and peel the lower third. Then cut into pieces of about the same length of 3cm(1in). Add them to the boiling water together with the sugar and the juice of half a lemon and cook for 2 minutes. Skim off 300ml (1.3cups) of the broth and set aside. Drain the asparagus and set aside as well.
Peel and finely chop the onion and garlic. Heat the butter in a large frying pan and sauté the onion and garlic until translucent. Then add the flour and stir thoroughly. Now add the milk and bring to the boil. Whisk thoroughly until a lump-free sauce is formed.
Now dissolve the vegetable bouillon cube in the asparagus broth, mix with the sauce and bring to the boil briefly. Now add the juice of the remaining lemon, some lemon zest and the ricotta and mix everything thoroughly. Season to taste with salt, pepper and nutmeg. Add the asparagus.
Preheat the oven to 200°C/400°F top/bottom heat.
Provide a small baking dish per serving and cover the bottom with some sauce.
Then put a layer of lasagne sheets on top. Now follow with a layer of the asparagus ricotta sauce. Make sure that the lasagne sheets are completely covered.
Repeat the previous step twice and finish with a layer of mozzarella slices and grated Parmesan.
Now bake the lasagna in the oven for about 30 minutes until golden brown. Let cool briefly before serving.
Buon appetito!
