The only lasagna recipe you will ever need. This seven layer lasagna is the perfect balance of richness and creaminess. It is my go-to dish for entertaining. You can make it a couple days ahead and it is sure to be a crowd pleaser. I owe this recipe to my momma, she taught me well with this one! It is a labor of love but everything good in life takes time and patience.
Lasagna
Ingredients
1 quantity Bolognese sauce
1 quantity Béchamel sauce
1 ½lb Fresh lasagna
2T Butter
2C Pecorino Romano, freshly grated
Directions
Prepare the Bolognese sauce. Prepare the béchamel sauce and combine with the Bolognese until they are evenly mixed.Fill a pot with water, salt and a drizzle with olive oil. Place over high heat and bring to a boil. Cook lasagna sheets 3-4 at a time for about 1 to 2 minutes each. Remove with a slotted spoon and lay sheets out separately on a dry towel.
Preheat oven to 400°.
In a large baking dish coat the interior with 1T of butter to stop the lasagna from sticking. Line with a single layer of cooked lasagna sheets. Cover with a layer of the Bolognese and béchamel sauce. Sprinkle with Pecorino Romano, then add another layer of lasagna. Repeat until there are at least 6 layers. Spread a thin layer of the Bolognese and béchamel sauce on top, sprinkle with cheese and dot with remaining butter.
Bake in preheated oven for 30 to 45 minutes.
Cibo E Famiglia 
Hi Lauren,
I remember having this lasagna dish at one of your parents dinner parties. It was
so delicious, honestly scrumptious! I’m happy to have this recipe since it is so different from my mom’s lasagna. It’s funny when we were recently at Carmines with your parents, we talked about how adventurous/confident you are with your recipes. You are so much like your mom…not afraid to try anything. Your dad and I talked about how we make whatever our moms made, haha.
Hope all is well with your family. Sending love,
Francine
