How to Make BEEF LASAGNA Like an Italian
Beef lasagna is a well-loved family meal all over the world and my version with a trio of cheeses, béchamel and homemade tomato passata in a word is: SUBLIME. Between each moist layer of fresh egg pasta sheets is a mixture of veal and pork mince, smothered in sweet tomato sauce. There are two key things to make yours as good as mine – you need patience and quality ingredients, no shredded mozzarella or cheap passata here. No need to thank me, just make it, eat it and share it.

RICOTTA MIXTURE
1lb/455g fresh ricotta (EASY recipe below or use nice store bought)
75g or 3/4c grated parm
100g or 1/2c heavy cream
5g or 3/4tsp salt
2g or 1tsp black pepper

FRESH RICOTTA
▪½ gallon/2000g whole milk
▪200g or 3/4c + 2 Tbsp heavy cream
▪15g or 2 1/4tsp salt
▪100g or 1/3c + 1Tbsp white distilled vinegar
Place 4 layers of cheesecloth in a colander with bowl underneath (i use a salad spinner with basket).
Add milk, cream, and salt to a sauce pan and heat over medium for 10 min, whisking frequently, until temp reaches 190F/88C. At this point, add vinegar. Very gently stir with spatula or whisk to combine. Allow to sit for 15 minutes to allow milk to break. Curds and whey should be separated. Gently pour mix into cheesecloth setup then lift out cheesecloth and allow to drain for about 20min. Now you have fresh ricotta.

MEAT SAUCE
1lb/450g 80/20 ground beef
2 115g/4oz Italian sausages, meat removed from casings
Olive oil
25-30g or 2Tbsp butter
200g or 1 lrg onion
Salt
20g/5 cloves garlic, minced
Chile flakes
2 28oz cans crushed tomatoes
5-7g or 1-2tsp sugar
Spread ground beef and sausage meat flat onto a sheet tray. Cook under the oven broiler for 15 minutes (or roast in oven at highest temp).
While that cooks, add 25-30g olive oil and butter into large heavy bottomed pot over med-high. When melted, add onion and pinch of salt. Stir and cook onions until softened and translucent. Add garlic and chile flakes. Cook for about a minute until fragrant. Add crushed tomatoes. Add 10g salt and stir to combine. Simmer for about 5min.
Check broiling meat. When done, it should be browned and cooked through. Crumble into small pieces then add to tomato sauce along with any drippings, stir and continue to cook for 20-30 minutes. Sauce should have reduced by about half. To finish, taste for seasoning. Add a pinch more salt, if needed, and sugar to balance. Stir and taste again.

Lasagne ???????? #shorts
Ingredients
- 1 brown onion, diced
- 1 carrot, diced
- 2 sticks celery, diced
- 2 tbsp, olive oil
- 500g pork mince
- 500g beef mince
- 200ml red wine
- 2 x 400g jar tomato passata
- Parmesan 200g
- 300g Tipo 00 flour
- 3 eggs
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- Salt to taste
- 50g butter
- 50g flour
- 500ml milk
- 1/4 ground fresh nutmeg
- 350g mozzarella
- Small bunch basil
Method
1. Start with the sauce for the meat, heat the olive oil in a large pot and saute the onions, carrot and celery.
2. Add the meat and a good pinch of salt, making sure you break it up and cook for 4-5 minutes. Then, add the red wine and reduce.
3. Once the wine has evaporated, add the tomato passata and stir well, and pop in the rind of the parmesan.
4. Turn to med-low and place the lid on to cook for 1 hour. Then, remove the lid and cook for 1 more hour.
5. For the pasta, with the flour on the bench, make a well in the centre and add the eggs, oil and a pinch of salt.
6. Starting from the centre, work the dough with a fork until it starts to come together. Once it comes together, knead the dough into a smooth ball (around 8-10min).
7. Let the dough rest for 30 minutes before you roll it out. Once rolled, blanch the pasta sheets in boiling salted water for 2 minutes and then place into cold water to stop the cooking.
8. Remove from the water and place onto an oiled tray in the fridge.
9. For the white sauce, melt the butter and add the flour and stir. Cook this for 2-3 minutes and then add the milk. Whisk over medium heat until you have a smooth sauce.
10. Add 40g of grated parmesan and the nutmeg, and stir until the cheese had melted.
11. To make the lasagne, start with an oven save dish and ladle some of the meat sauce, then a drizzle of the white sauce, then a single layer of pasta, before adding more meat sauce, white sauce and some of the mozzarella and parmesan, repeat until all the pasta and sauce is used up.
12. The last layer, spread the basil before you finish it with the meat sauce but leave some of the cheese to melt 1/2 way through the baking. In total you want at least 5 layers of pasta.
13. Cover the dish with foil and bake in a 180°c oven for 20 minutes, then remove the foil and add the last of the cheese, bake again for 15-20 minutes or until the cheese is golden brown.
14. Enjoy!
