Easy Lasagna Pasta Recipe

What should we eat for lunch or for dinner today?…

These days we are all imprisoned at home because of the coronavirus, we are indulging in showing everyone our most delicious and most curious dishes in the various sites of Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest.

I am preparing the famous lasagna pasta with béchamel and ragu, an easy recipe.

I prepare it as my mother taught me, it is not the Bolognese one, maybe it looks like the Bolognese, because after all we all took inspiration from that original recipe, and then everyone adapts the recipe to their own tastes and needs.

 I advise you to prepare the ragu with the solo-dolce recipe, preferably one day in advance so that you have it ready when assembling the lasagna.

Choose a minced meat that is very fresh: pork for the fat part, veal for the lean part. Layers of pasta sheets that can be egg pasta or not, a tasty ragù, grated cheese, an enveloping béchamel sauce and a few slices of cheese (Emmental, Provola or Cheddar).

I always prepare a few more trays that I freeze to always have it available. Let’s see together how to proceed with the recipe.
