Time 1h30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

3/4 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for greasing
8 ounces ground beef (80/20)
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
20 basil leaves, torn into bite-size pieces
1 1/2 cups marinara sauce, such as Pomi
1 quart whole milk
1 tablespoon arrowroot
1/8 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
2 to 3 small zucchini, cut lengthwise into 1/8-inch-thick strips on a mandoline
6 ounces Parmigiano Reggiano
4 ounces no-boil lasagna sheets, such as Delallo's

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Meanwhile, heat the oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Sprinkle the ground beef with salt and pepper and add to the pan once the oil is smoking. Brown the beef on one side, about 2 minutes, then break it up with a spoon. Add the basil and then the marinara sauce. Bring the sauce to a simmer and cook until it is slightly thicker, about 1 minute. Set aside.
  • Add 1 tablespoon of the milk to a small bowl and mix with the arrowroot. Add the remaining milk to a small saucepot and bring to a simmer over high heat. Add the arrowroot mixture and whisk until thickened, about 30 seconds. Turn off the heat, add the nutmeg and whisk to combine. Season with salt and pepper and set aside.
  • Grease an 8-by-8-inch baking dish with oil. Spoon a little bit of Bolognese red sauce and a little bit of the white sauce on the bottom of the pan. Add a layer of the zucchini slices and grate the Parmigiano directly over the top to cover. Add a single layer, or 2 sheets of lasagna noodles - you can cut the noodles and use the trim if they don't fit perfectly. Repeat the layers until the dish is filled to the brim, making 10 layers. Sprinkle the top with any remaining Parmigiano. Place the pan in the oven and bake until golden brown and bubbly, about 40 minutes.
  • Remove from the oven, let stand for at least 5 minutes and then cut and serve.

10 LB. LASAGNA



10 Lb. Lasagna image

I call this the 10 lb. lasagna because the ingredients total about 10 lbs. I have been practicing my lasagna recipe for years and this is what I have finally come up with. Note: This lasagna can be made the day before and baked the next day. Or you can make this lasagna and freeze to bake at a later time. (If you freeze, please remember to allow extra baking time.)

1 lb mozzarella cheese
1 lb ricotta cheese

2 cups grated parmesan cheese
lasagna noodle (boiled according to directions on box use 1-1/2 boxes)

Adding at least another teaspoon of olive oil to the skillet or pot, sauté the 1 large diced onion and fresh minced or chopped garlic for a few minutes. Add the canned chopped tomatoes and tomato sauce to the skillet. Add browned Sausage to Tomatoes. Let tomato sauce come to a slight bubbling and turn heat down to simmer. Add at least 1 teaspoon (or more to taste) each of Italian seasoning, basil and sugar to the tomato sauce. Add several dashes of red or white wine for flavoring. Allow tomato sauce to simmer on medium to low heat, stirring occasionally, until tomato sauce is cooked down to about half the amount (about 30-45 minutes).
  • Ricotta Cheese Mixture:.
  • In a separate bowl mix together, ricotta cheese, 8 ounces mozzarella cheese, 1 cup parmesan cheese, 1 pkg. cream cheese, 1 med-large minced onion, 1 teaspoon basil. Set aside until ready to use.
  • Layering:.
  • Using a large deep-sided baking dish or lasagna pan, layer 1/3 tomato sauce, lasagna noodles, ½ ricotta cheese mixture, continue layering until you have ended with tomato sauce.
  • Sprinkle remaining mozzarella cheese and parmesan cheese on the top. Cover with foil and bake at 350 degrees until heated thoroughly and bubbling about 1 hour and 45 minutes. Take foil off and bake for another 15 minutes allowing cheese to lightly brown around the edges.
