Ingredients
Pasta
Meat Sauce
Cheese Mixture
Preparing the Meat Sauce
1. Cook the Ground Beef
In a large skillet over medium heat, add the ground beef and cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes. Break it up with a spatula as it cooks.
2. Sauté the Vegetables
Add the chopped onion and minced garlic to the skillet with the beef. Sauté until the onion is translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
3. Add Tomatoes and Seasonings
Stir in the crushed tomatoes, tomato paste, oregano, basil, salt, and black pepper. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat to low and let it cook for about 20 minutes.
Preparing the Cheese Mixture
4. Mix the Cheeses
In a medium bowl, combine the ricotta cheese, egg, and grated Parmesan cheese. Mix until smooth and well combined.
Assembling the Lasagna
5. Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
6. Layer the Ingredients
In a baking dish, spread a thin layer of meat sauce at the bottom. Place 3 lasagna noodles over the sauce, then spread a third of the cheese mixture over the noodles. Sprinkle with a layer of shredded mozzarella cheese. Repeat this process two more times, finishing with a layer of meat sauce and a generous topping of mozzarella cheese.
7. Bake the Lasagna
Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden.
8. Let it Rest
Once baked, remove from the oven and let the lasagna sit for about 10-15 minutes before slicing. This allows the layers to set.
