Lasagne is a classic Italian dish made with layers of flat pasta sheets, meat sauce, cheese, and bechamel sauce. It’s a hearty and comforting dish that’s perfect for feeding a crowd or for a cozy family dinner:
To make lasagne, start by preparing a meat sauce with ground beef or pork, onions, garlic, tomatoes, and herbs. Simmer the sauce until it’s thick and flavorful.
Next, make the bechamel sauce by melting butter in a saucepan, stirring in flour to make a roux, and then gradually whisking in milk until the sauce is smooth and thickened.
To assemble the lasagne, spread a thin layer of meat sauce in the bottom of a baking dish. Top with a layer of pasta sheets, then a layer of bechamel sauce and a layer of grated cheese. Repeat the layers until you’ve used up all of your ingredients, finishing with a layer of bechamel sauce and cheese on top.
Bake the lasagne in a preheated oven until it’s bubbly and golden brown on top, then let it cool slightly before slicing and serving. Enjoy this delicious and comforting dish with a side salad and some crusty bread!
