Lasagna
For the first time, lasagna was baked, apparently, in the
vicinity of the city of Bologna.
Among the ancient Romans, the word lasanum meant "cooking pot".
It follows that the famous Italian dish got its name in honor of the
pan. On the other hand, the term "lasana" in Greek means "hot
plates", and "laganon" is something like a flat wheat tortilla. And,
perhaps, that's why they began to call a kind of sheet paste from the
dough.

Step 1
Heat the olive oil in a frying pan, send the
minced meat and onion there. Fry everything
for about five minutes, stirring constantly. It
is necessary to try to make sure that lumps
do not form from the minced meat during the
frying process.

6.

Step 2
Wash the tomatoes, cut into cubes. You can
remove the skin from the tomato beforehand.
Add tomato paste and tomatoes to the pan with
minced meat. Add salt to taste.

7.

Step 3
Mix everything well, reduce the heat to medium and
simmer the minced meat under a closed lid for about 10
minutes.

Step 4
MAKING BECHAMEL SAUSE
Melt the butter in a saucepan. Pour in the flour
and, stirring continuously with a whisk, fry it
lightly.

9.

Step 5
Gradually pour in the milk, continuing to mix
the mass with a whisk so that no lumps form.
Bring to a state of thick cream, remove from
heat and cool.

Step 6
Lasagna Assembly
Grease the bottom of the baking dish with vegetable oil
or cover with baking paper. Pour the bottom with
Bechamel sauce.

11.

Step 7
Lay out the lasagna sheets in the first
layer. If the instruction requires it, then
pre-boil the sheets. Pour the sauce on
top of the sheets again.

12.

Step 8
Put the minced meat in the next layer
and sprinkle it with lightly grated
cheese.

13.

Step 9
Pour the sauce over the minced meat. Repeat
all layers until the form is filled in. The last
layer with the sheets should be very well
filled with sauce, especially the edges,
otherwise there is a chance that the dough
sheet will dry up and burn during cooking.

14.

Step 10
The final layer is grated cheese. Send the lasagna to the
preheated oven for 30-35 minutes at 190-200 degrees
(focus on your oven, an appetizing golden crust should
form on the lasagna).

15.

Step 11
Remove the finished dish from
the oven and let it brew for
about 10 minutes. Cut the
lasagna into portions and
arrange on plates. Serve hot.
