Lasagna bolognese: recipe for cooking. Video

To prepare a classic bolognese lasagna, you will need the following ingredients:

• lasagna sheets – one pack
• Parmesan cheese – 150-200 grams

For bolognese sauce you will need:

• minced meat – 600-700 grams
• fresh tomatoes – two pieces
• tomato paste – 2 tablespoons
• ground pepper – to taste
• salt to taste
• olive oil

For the béchamel sauce, take:

• milk – 1 liter
• butter – 120 grams
• nutmeg to taste
• flour – 3 tablespoons

This recipe lists Parmesan cheese, but you can substitute any hard cheese for it. However, in this case, the taste of the dish may differ slightly from the traditional lasagna bolognese.

First, cook the lasagna dough sheets according to the instructions on the package. After that, fill the boiled sheets with cold water. Now you can start preparing the filling of the bolognese sauce, which will be the filling of the lasagna at the same time. To do this, fry the minced meat in a preheated pan with olive oil. In the meantime, prepare the tomato dressing. After washing the tomatoes, peel them off, and then chop them in a blender or with a knife. After mixing the tomatoes with tomato paste, add the mixture to the minced meat, pepper and salt. Continue cooking the sauce until it thickens.

After that, prepare the béchamel sauce: melt butter in a saucepan, mix it with flour, then add milk in small portions. Boil this sauce also until thick.

Remember to stir the sauce constantly to avoid flour clumps.

After preparing the sauces, start baking the lasagna. Pour some white béchamel sauce into a baking dish, then spread it thoroughly along the bottom. Overlap with 2 sheets of dough. Brush it with white sauce, sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese, and on top of the latter, gently pour a layer of bolognese sauce. Repeat this layer of lasagna in the same order 3 more times. In total, you should end up with at least 4 layers, and ideally 6.

Pour the top, last, layer with white sauce, then sprinkle thickly with grated cheese. Place the lasagne dish in the preheated oven and bake for about 40 minutes. If you reproduce the lasagna dough recipe and the steps for preparing this dish without errors, you will end up with a classic bolognese lasagna.

What if you are having trouble finding Parmesan cheese or ready-made lasagna sheets? In this case, a homemade lasagna bolognese recipe comes in handy. Moreover, the sheets for her can be made with your own hands.

To prepare the dough, you will need:

• flour – 300 g
• raw eggs – 3 pieces
• salt – 1 tsp
• spinach – 100 g

For bolognese sauce you will need:

• minced meat – 500 g
• tomatoes – 5 pieces
• olive oil – 4 tablespoon
• tomato paste – 2 tablespoons
• salt to taste
• black pepper – to taste

To make béchamel sauce:

• milk – 1 liter
• butter – 150 g

In addition, for the cheese layer, you will need Parmesan cheese or another very hard cheese – 150 g.

First, prepare the lasagna dough. Its recipe includes spinach, which turns the dough green. Thaw it and grind it in a blender. Next, pour the sifted flour on the table with a slide and make a small hole in it. Pour eggs into this well, add salt and chopped spinach. Knead the dough until it becomes elastic and no longer sticks.

Add flour if necessary, as the specified amount may not be enough, because the gluten content may vary. After kneading the dough well, wrap it in plastic wrap and leave to rest for 30 minutes.

Then, after sprinkling flour on the table, divide the dough into 3 parts. Roll each of them into a thin layer 1–1,5 mm thick. From the rolled out layers, cut rectangular plates approximately 10 × 7 cm in size. Boil the plates one by one in salted water, rinse and lower them in a saucepan or bowl of cold water.

The recipe for the lasagna bolognese remains the same, so cook in the same way as in the previous version. First, fry the minced meat in olive oil for 10 minutes, then add mashed potatoes from chopped tomatoes and tomato paste to it. Season with salt, pepper, stir and cook for another 5 minutes. To make the béchamel sauce, mix the melted butter and flour in a saucepan, and then, stirring constantly, cook the sauce, adding milk to the saucepan.
