Zubereitung von Tomato Cheese Lasagna
- **Make the Sauce:** Sauté 1 medium onion, finely chopped, and 4 cloves garlic, minced, in 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large pot for 5 minutes, until softened.
- Add 2 (28-ounce) cans crushed tomatoes, 6 tablespoons tomato paste, 1 bay leaf, 1 teaspoon dried oregano, 1 teaspoon dried basil, ½ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes, and 4 ounces prosciutto or ham bone (optional).
- Simmer gently for 90 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Remove the bone (if using). Carefully puree the sauce using an immersion blender or in a regular blender (in batches). Taste and season with salt and pepper to your preference.
- **Prepare the Cheese Filling:** In a medium bowl, combine 15 ounces ricotta cheese, ¼ cup chopped fresh basil, ¼ cup chopped fresh parsley, and freshly ground black pepper to taste.

- Spread a layer of sauce over the noodles.
