Lasagna Ingredients

Method

Lasagna Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Sauce

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped onion and minced garlic, sauté until translucent.

  2. 2

    Add Tomato Sauce

    Pour in the tomato sauce, season with salt and black pepper, and let it simmer for 15 minutes.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Béchamel Sauce

    In a saucepan, melt 2 tablespoons of butter, whisk in 2 tablespoons of flour, and cook for 1 minute. Gradually add 2 cups of milk, whisking until thickened.

  4. 4

    Layer the Lasagna

    In a baking dish, spread a thin layer of tomato sauce, followed by 4 lasagna noodles, a layer of béchamel sauce, mozzarella, and some basil. Repeat the layers, finishing with tomato sauce and grated Parmigiano-Reggiano on top.

  5. 5

    Bake

    Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 30 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until golden and bubbly.

  6. 6

    Rest and Serve

    Let the lasagna rest for 10 minutes before slicing. Serve warm with fresh basil on top.
