Lasagna Ingredients

Method

Preparation Instructions

1

Cook the Meat

In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped onion and minced garlic, sauté until softened. Add ground beef, season with salt, pepper, oregano, and basil, and cook until browned. Drain excess fat.

2

Prepare the Cheese Mixture

In a mixing bowl, combine ricotta cheese, egg, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Mix until well combined.

3

Cook the Noodles

In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Cook lasagna noodles according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

4

Assemble the Lasagna

In a large baking pan, spread a layer of marinara sauce. Place a layer of noodles over the sauce, followed by half of the ricotta mixture, half of the meat mixture, and a layer of mozzarella cheese. Repeat the layers, finishing with noodles and remaining marinara sauce topped with mozzarella and parmesan cheese.

5

Bake the Lasagna

Cover the pan with aluminum foil and bake in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 25 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 25 minutes until the cheese is bubbly and golden.

6

Let it Rest

Allow the lasagna to cool for 10-15 minutes before slicing. Serve warm.
