MAKING lasagna
- Heat the sunflower oil and butter in a pan.
- Fry the chopped onions for 3-4 minutes. Add carrots to it
- Continue frying for another 3-4 minutes.
- Add the minced meat to the roasted carrots and onions and wait for it to release its juice and absorb it again.
- Add garlic, salt and pepper.
- Finally, add the grated tomatoes and bay leaves and leave the mortar to cook.
- After the tomato has absorbed a little water, add the peas and continue cooking the stuffing.
- For the bechamel sauce; melt the butter in a saucepan. Roast the flour until it smells and turns colour.
- Add cold milk to the roasted flour and cook by stirring constantly with the help of a whisk.
- When you use uncooked lasagna sheets, your béchamel sauce should be more liquid than normal.
- So be careful not to get it too solid.
- After adding black pepper and grated nutmeg, remove from the stove.
- Spread some bechamel sauce and stuffing on the bottom of the baking dish and arrange the lasagna sheets.
- Then add the minced meat, bechamel sauce and a piece of grated cheddar cheese in order.
- After reserving the béchamel sauce and grated cheddar cheese for the top layer of the lasagna, repeat this process for all the lasagna sheets, respectively.
- Cover the lasagna with the remaining bechamel sauce and grated cheddar cheese.
- Bake in a preheated 180 degree oven for 20-25 minutes.
- Cooking time may vary from oven to oven.
- Cook in moderation until you are sure it is cooked.
- Slice the lasagna out of the oven and serve it warm.
