 Directions

Preparation:

1. Oil the pan or wash-basin generously with 1/4 to 1/2 cup of olive oil so
that the phyllo dough will not stick. Line the pan with phyllo dough,
leaving at least 6" overlay to drape the timpano.

2. Layer the filling as you would with lasagne, but press down with your
hands so the timpano will hold and it will be well defined.

3. Add lightly sauced penne about 2" or so. Add various grilled vegetables
in a single layer.

4. Sprinkle with Parmesan and drizzle about 3/4 cup of marinara sauce over
the first layer.

5. Add 1/2 of the hard-boiled eggs, cut-side down.

6. Repeat layers until pan is filled.

7. Add beaten eggs which will set the timpano. Fold overlay over bottom of
timpano.

8. Bake on middle rack of 350 degree oven for 1 1 1/2 hours until crust is
golden. Check timpano after 45 minutes. If the top layer is cooking too
rapidly, lightly cover with foil.
