How to Make Clifton Street Lasagna

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a medium saucepan, combine 28 ounces (794g) of your favorite pasta sauce, 1 (6 ounce) can tomato paste, 1 cup beer (any kind), and 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning. Simmer over low heat for 5 minutes.
  3. In a large skillet, melt 1 tablespoon butter. Add 1 pound ground beef (or 1 pound cooked shrimp, or a combination of both) and sauté until browned. Add 1 teaspoon minced garlic and 1 teaspoon seasoned salt. Stir into the sauce.
  4. In the same skillet, melt another tablespoon of butter. Add 1 medium onion, chopped, 1 teaspoon minced garlic, and 1 teaspoon seasoned salt. Cook until onions are translucent (about 5 minutes). Stir into the sauce.
  5. Melt 1 tablespoon butter in the skillet and add 8 ounces (227g) sliced mushrooms, the remaining 1 teaspoon minced garlic, and the remaining 1 teaspoon seasoned salt. Cook for 2 minutes. Stir into the sauce.
  6. In a medium bowl, combine 15 ounces (425g) ricotta cheese, 1 large egg, and 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese. Mix well.
  7. Spread a thin layer of sauce in the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking pan.
  8. Layer 9 lasagna noodles over the sauce. Top with half the ricotta mixture, then half of the remaining sauce. Sprinkle with 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese.
  9. Repeat layers: noodles, ricotta mixture, sauce, mozzarella cheese.
  10. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 60-75 minutes, or until bubbly and cheese is golden brown.
