Lasagna Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Meat Sauce

    Stir in crushed tomatoes, tomato paste, oregano, basil, salt, and pepper. Simmer for 20 minutes.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Cheese Mixture

    In a bowl, combine ricotta cheese, egg, salt, and pepper. Mix until smooth.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Lasagna

    Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F). In a baking dish, spread a thin layer of meat sauce. Layer 3 lasagna noodles, half of the ricotta mixture, half of the ham, one-third of the mozzarella, and one-third of the meat sauce. Repeat layers, finishing with a layer of noodles topped with remaining meat sauce and mozzarella. Sprinkle parmesan cheese on top.

  4. 4

    Bake the Lasagna

    Cover with foil and bake for 30 minutes. Remove foil and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes until cheese is bubbly and golden. Let cool for 10 minutes before serving.
