Classic Lasagna Recipe

Remove the finished lasagne from the oven, let it stand for 10 minutes, and then cut into portions. Bon Appetit!

P.S. If you can't buy ready-made sheets of lasagna in the store, you can cook it yourself. To do this, sift 400 g of flour through a sieve so that you get a slide. Then we make a notch in the center of this slide, where we drive in 5 large eggs, salt to taste and knead the dough. It's even easier to do this in a food processor. We roll it into a ball, send it closer to the heat, for about twenty minutes.
Then we divide into nine parts and roll each part into a thin layer no more than 1.5 mm thick. Boil the layers in boiling salted water for ten minutes. Store the prepared dough strips in the freezer.
And especially about tomato puree for lasagna. This is NOT tomato paste, this is puree, it is much thinner, more like liquid ketchup without additives. There is a store, in banks. You can also make mashed potatoes at home by passing the tomatoes through a meat grinder and then through a coarse sieve.

And, girls and boys, write in the comments who cooked lasagna with which sheets. I took pasta zara, it turned out great, not sour and not hard. Barilla and Rolton go limp. Who else cooked with what and how it happened, can you share?

Italian cuisine is one of the most popular in the world. And for the Italians themselves, food is a cult and tradition. When we hear about culinary italy, then 2 names immediately pop up in my head: pizza and pasta.
In turn, pasta is a generalized name, and is like the semi-finished product itself from flour products for subsequent heat treatment, and a completely ready-made dish from the same flour products with sauces and cheese. And the well-known Italian lasagna is nothing more than a type of pasta.

The dish itself is quite old. The first mention of a lasagna recipe was found in a 1238 cookbook, which was found by archaeologists in Naples. Later, lasagna became popular in all corners of the earth.
Lasagna is made with layers of dough, filling, sauce and cheese. It is baked in the oven at high temperature. Lasagne dough is made from hard varieties wheat as for pasta. Recipes differ in fillings, and of course, the use of different sauces adds variety.
Cooking lasagna is a long and painstaking business. But the process can be made easier if you buy ready dough in the shop. You can also find separately ready-made sauce bechamel, although it will not take much time to prepare it. The most important thing remains - to prepare the bolognese sauce for the filling. Despite the fact that bolognese is considered a sauce, in fact it is chopped meat with vegetables, and it is also easy to prepare. In general, if you are going to cook classic lasagne with real bolognese sauce and white béchamel sauce, I advise you to be patient, concentrate and fill with love for food and your family. After all, food should be prepared with her. And then everything will turn out great!

Lasagne is called a culinary constructor: you can layer flat pasta sheets with anything: cheese, spinach, ham, celery stalks and even fish - and believe me, each option is wonderful in its own way. Classic lasagna counts a dish from three main ingredients: minced meat, flat pasta leaves and béchamel sauce.

• butter - 100 g;
• parmesan - 300 g;
• salt, spices to taste.

Lasagna sheets can, of course, be made at home: then you have to roll out the noodle dough to 2 mm, and then cut into neat slices. But why waste time if now it is easy to buy a ready-made set of plates at an affordable price. The main thing is to read the instructions for cooking: some sheets are pre-boiled, and there are those that are prepared dry.

We act in steps:

1. Lightly fry the minced meat over high heat.
2. Peel the tomatoes and turn them into mashed potatoes with a blender.

The ideal spice is green or purple basil, without which a pasta dish simply cannot be imagined in Italy.

With the addition of mushrooms

You can add mushrooms to one of the layers - champignons, oyster mushrooms, frozen mushrooms, boletus, porcini mushrooms. If you have chosen champignons, then they should be cut into thin slices and lightly fried in butter. Cut the other mushrooms into pieces and fry with onions until all the moisture has evaporated.

We make lasagne according to the classic recipe, but add mushrooms to one layer instead of meat, sprinkle them with cheese: when baked, it will melt, giving a delicious texture to the mushroom layer, and taste - to the whole casserole. The lasagne is cooked for 40 minutes and cut, allowing it to cool slightly.
