We have been in Italy and tasted lasagna and decided to try to create our own version. Aka lasagna – the Italian way. And here is the result, the recipe and photos:
Meat sauce
————-
3.5 kg minced meat
3 dove garlic
12 rasped carrots
4 bottles of Dolmio pasta sauce (500g) with extra spices
white sauce
——
500 gram butter
flour ca 3dl
white pepper
3 bouillon cube ( chicken/turkey )
ca. 3/4 nutmeg
ca. 3 L milk
some sugar
–
Pasta
———-
10 egg
1 kg pasta flour
little olive oil

We start with some ingredients. We have a big form, so it goes with a lot of minced meat. Cook minced meat with chopped garlic. Then put in the pasta sauce and grated carrots.

This is the Ingredients for the white sauce. I will not go into how to make white sauce here, but it should taste good of pepper and nutmeg.


Here is the finished fried minced meat with pasta sauce and carrots.

Real homemade pasta is a must and everyone is helping out.

Start by adding a thin layer with minced meat.

Then we add a layer of pasta sheets and covers with the sauce. It is important to get the edges good covered with sauce. The mid need not be 100% covered.

After some work it looks like this.

After 1 hour and 15 minutes it looks like this. Bake in the oven at 200 degrees with a little higher temperature at the end. Cover the top the first half hour. With this recipe we have food to 15-20 people. We were 8 this time and ate half.

Finally, I can sit down and enjoy dinner with a glass of red wine.

That looks delicious but a lot of hard work! I have never tried to make pasta – I always go for the whole wheat varieties and am not sure how easy it would be to make that type.

It is a lot of work, but then again we only do this ones a year. I will recommend you to try to make fresh pasta, maybe for an easy dish the first time. Then you can constraint on the making of the pasta.

Hi,
May I?
First off all , a premise:
personally I am a Romanian and I am living in Italy by 15 years and my son are living in USA (to make you understand that I am objective and I’m not speaking like an Italian, but like someone who loves what is good from the past (in the kitchen also). I learned to love Italy , her traditionality, the italian old people, the real MADE IN ITALY, ….our history (US also). I became an Italian citizen. I have learned to cook “PASTA ALL’ITALIANA” and they have left me the secretes. Are not comparable and are invaluable, with all the recipes that you can invent.
Not only, but doing this, in addition to ruining the taste of a delicious dish from over 300 years, you are damaging the liver.
Not only! America, if I am not wrong, Obama himself, today are fighting THE OBESITY. Right?.
Does you seems a sensible recipe adding a sandwich or brad….?!
The plate of LASAGNA, and him alone, it is good and rich, but certainly did not ever hurt generations of Italians with the obesity.
To cook the lasagne, the old italian women have a traditional secret.Nothing more!
And to enjoy it at 100%, put near a good Chianti or Barolo.
