Categories     World Cuisine Recipes     European     Italian

Time 3h15m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 20

1 pound sweet Italian sausage
¾ pound lean ground beef
½ cup minced onion
2 cloves garlic, crushed
1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes
2 (6 ounce) cans tomato paste
2 (6.5 ounce) cans canned tomato sauce
½ cup water
2 tablespoons white sugar
1 ½ teaspoons dried basil leaves
½ teaspoon fennel seeds
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1 ½ teaspoons salt, divided, or to taste
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
4 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
12 lasagna noodles
16 ounces ricotta cheese
1 egg
¾ pound mozzarella cheese, sliced
¾ cup grated Parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • In a Dutch oven, cook sausage, ground beef, onion, and garlic over medium heat until well browned. Stir in crushed tomatoes, tomato paste, tomato sauce, and water. Season with sugar, basil, fennel seeds, Italian seasoning, 1 teaspoon salt, pepper, and 2 tablespoons parsley. Simmer, covered, for about 1 1/2 hours, stirring occasionally.
  • Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook lasagna noodles in boiling water for 8 to 10 minutes. Drain noodles, and rinse with cold water. In a mixing bowl, combine ricotta cheese with egg, remaining parsley, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • To assemble, spread 1 1/2 cups of meat sauce in the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish. Arrange 6 noodles lengthwise over meat sauce. Spread with one half of the ricotta cheese mixture. Top with a third of mozzarella cheese slices. Spoon 1 1/2 cups meat sauce over mozzarella, and sprinkle with 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese. Repeat layers, and top with remaining mozzarella and Parmesan cheese. Cover with foil: to prevent sticking, either spray foil with cooking spray, or make sure the foil does not touch the cheese.
  • Bake in preheated oven for 25 minutes. Remove foil, and bake an additional 25 minutes. Cool for 15 minutes before serving.

Categories     Ham     Pasta     Mother's Day     Easter     Casserole/Gratin     Cheese     Father's Day     Fourth of July     Thanksgiving     New Year's Eve     Super Bowl     Bake     Kid-Friendly     Dinner     Lunch

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 pound Lasagne noodles
10 ounces Lean ground beef
6 ounces Prosciutto crudo, chopped up but not too small
1.5 cups Pomodoro sauce (make you own)
1 Medium onion, chopped
1 Celery stalk, chopped
.5 cup White wine
1 cup Chicken stock
4 ounces Grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese
7 tablespoons Butter
1 tablespoon Olive Oil
4 cups Béchamel (make your own or use good store bought)
Salt to taste

Steps:

  • Over medium heat melt 4 tbsp butter in a sauce pan and sauté the onion, celery and the chopped prosciutto for about 3-4 minutes.
  • Add the ground beef and let them brown nicely, stirring constantly. Stir in the wine a little at a time until it is completely incorporated.
  • At this point add the chicken stock, pomodoro sauce and salt to taste. Cover and cook on a very low flame for an hour and a half, stirring occasionally. Add more broth if necessary.
  • Preheat oven to 400°F.
  • Cook the pasta as directed for al dente. Drain and set on parchment paper on a baking sheet. Drizzle a little olive oil on the top of the pasta so the next layer won't stick.

Cover the bottom of the pan with a layer of lasagne, Put a half of the meat sauce, 1/3 of béchamel sauce and 1/3 of the parmigiano-reggiano cheese.

CLASSIC ITALIAN LASAGNE



Classic Italian lasagne image

Theo Randall shares his authentic Italian lasagne recipe, with a creamy béchamel sauce and classic defined layers. Everyone's favourite family meal

Provided by Theo Randall

Categories     Dinner, Main course

Time 3h30m

Number Of Ingredients 19

250g pack fresh lasagne sheets
olive oil, for greasing
large handful grated parmesan
110g unsalted butter
1 celery stick, finely chopped
1 carrot, finely chopped
1 small red onion, finely chopped
25g dried porcini, soaked for 10 mins in hot water, drained and roughly chopped
1 rosemary sprig, leaves picked and chopped
1kg trimmed beef or veal flank, finely chopped (ask your butcher to do this for you)
125ml dry white wine
400g can good-quality chopped tomatoes
1l full-fat milk
1 bay leaf
75g unsalted butter
125g '00' pasta flour
good grating of nutmeg
100g parmesan, finely grated
2 egg yolks

Steps:

  • For the ragu, melt the butter in a large flameproof casserole dish over a medium heat until foaming. Add the celery, carrot, onion, porcini, rosemary and some seasoning, and fry for 5 mins.
  • Season the meat, add to the dish and cook for 5 mins until browned. Pour in the wine, add the tomatoes and bring to the boil.
  • Reduce the heat to low, put the lid on the dish and cook for 1hr 30 mins, removing the lid for the final 30 mins so the sauce can reduce. The meat should be tender but not too broken up, and the sauce should be thick. Taste for seasoning. You can cook it for longer if you have time - the flavour will only improve.
  • For the béchamel sauce, pour the milk into a saucepan with the bay leaf. Bring to a simmer, turn off the heat and set aside. In a heavy-based saucepan, melt the butter over a medium heat, then whisk in the flour and hot milk. Whisk vigorously until smooth, then cook for 10-15 mins until very thick. Remove the bay leaf and season, grating in nutmeg to taste. Stir in the parmesan and egg yolks, then set aside to cool.
  • Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Working in batches of three, plunge the pasta sheets into a pan of boiling salted water for 20 secs, just to soften, then immediately put in a bowl of ice-cold water.
  • Rub oil onto the base and sides of a large baking dish. Put a layer of pasta on the base, then add a layer of ragu, followed by a layer of béchamel sauce. A good tip, for really defined layers, is to pipe the béchamel sauce over.
  • Repeat this process until you have used all the pasta and ragu, and finish with a layer of béchamel sauce on top. Sprinkle the top with a generous layer of parmesan.
  • Bake in the oven for 40-45 mins or until bubbling and golden brown, then remove from the oven and leave to settle for 10 mins.
  • Cut the lasagne into squares and let it sit for another 10 mins before serving - this keeps the layers defined and helps it cool down more quickly.

  • In a large, heavy pot, put the olive oil, garlic and parsley over medium high heat. When the garlic begins to brown, increase the heat and add the ground beef. Break up the beef, but keep it rather chunky. Sprinkle with about 1/2 tsp of salt.
  • When the beef is beginning to dry up, add the tomatoes and stir well. Add more salt, then lower the heat and allow to simmer for about an hour, stirring from time to time. Taste for salt and add pepper.
  • When the sauce is ready, add the torn basil leaves. Remove about a cup (8 oz) of plain sauce (leave the ground beef in the pot and save for the top layer). Refrigerate the meat sauce when cool, or set aside if using right away.
  • Melt the butter in a medium pot then add the flour. Keep stirring to cook the flour for at least 5 minutes, but don't let it brown. Pour in a little of the milk, and stir quickly to incorporate.
