Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
500 g Oven Ready Lasagna Noodles
4 tb Butter
1 sm Onion -- diced
3 tb Flour
2 c Milk
3/4 c Parmesan cheese
3/4 ts Salt
2 Egg yolks
1 lb Lean ground beef
6 c Spagetti sauce
8 oz Mozzarella cheese
8 oz Ricotta or cottage cheese
Prepare covering sauce using butter, flour, and milk. Easy
microwave method is to first melt butter, add diced onion and
microwave on high for 1 minute. Stir in flour and add milk.
Microwave at high until mixture starts to boil and thicken. Stir
occasionally to prevent lumping. Otherwise, use basic white sauce
technique and saute onions in fry pan, adding later.
Add parmesan cheese and salt and stir.
In a separate bowl, beat egg yolks slightly and add a small amount
of the sauce to the eggs. Stir and then pour into the sauce,
stirring constantly. Set aside.
Brown the ground beef until cooked and drain off the fat. Add to
sauce (any prepared sauce is fine, slightly spiced works best) and
set aside.
Note: Any homemade spagetti sauce works here, and if it contains
ground beef then omit the above addition of meat.
Slice the mozzarella cheese.
Grease a 9x13x2" deep pan.
Add a layer of spagetti sauce on the bottom.
Add a single layer of noodles.
Add a layer of mozzarella, and a layer of ricotta (or cottage
cheese).
Repeat layers until all ingredients are used up, retaining enough
noodles to top it off.
Pour (white/cheese) sauce over the lasagna and spread it evenly.
Sprinkle some parmesan cheese over the top.
Bake at 325 F for 25 minutes. Broil to brown the top. Let stand for
10 minutes before serving.
