Cómo preparar Pastitsio Just Like My Sister's
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Prepare the meat sauce: In a large pan, brown the ground beef (1 lb) over medium-high heat. Drain off any excess fat.
- Add the onion (1 medium, chopped), garlic (2 cloves, minced), and oregano (1 tsp) to the pan and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
- Stir in the crushed tomatoes (28 oz can), tomato paste (6 oz can), cinnamon (1/2 tsp), and bay leaf (1). Simmer for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Cook the pasta: Cook the bucatini pasta (1 lb) according to package directions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
- Make the béchamel sauce: In a saucepan, melt the butter (4 tbsp) over medium heat. Whisk in the flour (4 tbsp) and cook for 1 minute.
- Gradually whisk in the milk (3 cups) until smooth. Bring to a simmer, stirring constantly. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Remove from heat and stir in the Parmesan cheese (1 cup, grated), nutmeg (1/4 tsp), and salt and pepper to taste.
- Assemble the pastitsio: In a greased 9x13 inch baking dish, spread half of the meat sauce.
- Layer half of the cooked bucatini pasta over the meat sauce.
- Spread the béchamel sauce evenly over the pasta.
