Authentic Italian
Lasagna Recipe
For You Made Easy!

An authentic Italian lasagna recipe easy and quick, but wonderfully satisfying for you made easy.

Make it with a fewer ingredients if you want because lasagna is not always a cheesy affair with plenty mozzarella.

In many regions of Italy, lasagna is made without tomatoes or mozzarella.

These recipes more simply call for béchamel sauce instead of cheese. The only cheese required is grated Parmesan.

So, you can keep your recipe really easy with only quick basic béchamel sauce.

Anyway, in this recipe you can choose with or without ragů sauce and mozzarella as you want.



Ingredients: serves 4

lasagna6 ounces (gr 170) or 8 sheets white or green packaged lasagnas
Ragů Spaghetti Sauce
Béchamel Sauce
4 ounces (gr 113) mozzarella cheese chopped
4 ounces (gr 113) parmesan cheese grated
1 tbsp (gr 14) unsalted butter
1 tbsp (gr 14) sea salt



Wine pairing

You can pair with this recipe a good strong Chianti red wine.



Preparation: medium
Time: 40 minutes

It will take you 2 hours to accomplish the whole recipe with sauces,
so consider that Ragů Spaghetti Sauce and Béchamel Sauce can be prepared ahead of time, or the day before and refrigerated ready to be used.



"Let's Start!"


1. You'll cook the sheets as any other pasta following directions on packaged for cooking time adding the salt to the water when boiling.

To prevent from sticking the sheets one with each other after you have drained, try to place them around on a colander border or on a cotton cloth.

2. Start preheating your oven at 350°F (180°C) and bring your ready sauces. Butter the bottom and sides of a 7x9 inch (cm 18x23) stainless steel baking pan or dish. Once you're ready spread over 3 tablespoons of Béchamel Sauce, 3 tablespoons of my Ragů Spaghetti Sauce.

3. Now you can start assembling laying one by one the sheets of lasagna and cover the bottom of your pan or dish. Spread again 3 tablespoons of béchamel and ragů as before but this time add the 2 tablespoons of mozzarella and 2 tablespoons of parmesan.

4. Repeat the process until you have made other 3 layers. At the end on the top of your assembled sheets, you'll spread just the remaining ragů and parmesan.

5. Cover your pan or dish with tin foil and place into the middle rack of your oven. Bake for 15 minutes, then remove the tin foil and bake a further 10 minutes till you see a crust has formed on.



"Well Done!"


Cool a few minutes before serving to your family and friends your wonderfully satisfying meal.
