Five festive layers of Italian luxury, inspired by the electric Ferrari Luce.

A luxurious oven-baked dish with five layers – like the five seats in the electric Ferrari – richly filled with Italian flavors, mozzarella, eggplant, tomato, and fresh basil. Each layer is an ode to innovation and tradition, perfect for sharing after a record-breaking auction.

Ingredients

  • 2 eggplants
  • 2 zucchinis
  • 2 red bell peppers
  • 800 g canned diced tomatoes
  • 2 onions
  • 3 cloves garlic
  • 400 g fresh lasagna sheets
  • 250 g mozzarella
  • 100 g Parmesan cheese
  • 1 bunch fresh basil
  • 4 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 200°C.
  2. Slice the eggplants, zucchinis, and peppers.
  3. Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a frying pan and fry the vegetables in batches until golden. Set aside.
  4. Finely chop the onions and garlic. Sauté in 2 tbsp olive oil until translucent.
  5. Add the diced tomatoes, oregano, salt, and pepper. Let simmer for 10 minutes.
  6. Grease a baking dish. Start with a layer of sauce, then lasagna sheets, vegetables, mozzarella, and basil. Repeat until all ingredients are used. Finish with sauce and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.
  7. Bake for 35 minutes in the center of the oven until golden and bubbling.
  8. Let rest for 5 minutes before serving.
