How to Make Lasagne
- Cook 1 pound lasagne noodles in a large saucepan of boiling salted water until tender, about 15 minutes. Drain well and set aside.
- **Meat Sauce:** Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add 1 pound ground beef and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned. Drain off any excess grease.
- Add 1 large onion, finely chopped; 8 ounces sliced mushrooms; 4 cloves garlic, minced; 2 (28-ounce) cans crushed tomatoes; 1 (15-ounce) can tomato sauce; 1 teaspoon dried oregano; 1 teaspoon dried basil; 1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary; 1 teaspoon salt; and 1/2 teaspoon sugar.
- Bring to a boil, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 60 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- **Cheese Sauce:** Melt 1/4 cup butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Whisk in 1/4 cup all-purpose flour and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly.
- Gradually whisk in 3 cups milk until smooth. Bring to a simmer, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens.
- Remove from heat and stir in 2 cups grated mozzarella cheese and 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese until melted and smooth. Season with salt, pepper, and a pinch of nutmeg to taste.
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Spread a thin layer of meat sauce in the bottom of a greased 9x13 inch baking dish.
- Layer one-third of the cooked noodles over the meat sauce.
- Spread half of the cheese sauce over the noodles, followed by another third of the noodles and the remaining meat sauce.
- Top with the final third of the noodles and the remaining cheese sauce. Sprinkle with extra Parmesan cheese.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until bubbly and golden brown. Let stand for 10-15 minutes before serving.
