➤Ingredients:
Soffritto:
4-5 tbsp olive oil
2 onions
2 celery stalks
1 large carrot
1 kg minced meat
150 ml red wine
1 L tomato juice
1 tsp Salt
1/2 tsp pepper
Bechamel sauce:
75g butter
70g flour
850 ml milk
1/2 tsp ground cloves
1/4 tsp nutmeg
Assemble:
12 lasagna sheets
600g grated mozzarella cheese
300g (2 balls) mozzarella in whey
100g grana Padano
400 ml chopped tomatoes
14 basil leaves or 1 tsp dried basil
➤ Preparation mode
Soffritto:
Dice the onion, celery stalks and carrot. Cook for 10 minutes in olive oil over high heat, then add minced meat. With a wooden spoon, chop the meat and wait until it changes colour. Add the wine, stir and cook for 5 minutes, then add the tomato juice (1 L). Stir, put the lid on and let everything simmer for 1 hour, then take the lid off and leave for another 1 hour on the heat, stirring occasionally. All the wine will evaporate. Add salt only at the end to taste.
Bechamel sauce:
Melt the butter, add the flour and mix. Gradually add the milk, stirring constantly for 10 minutes. Add spices and stir.
Assemble:
Between a 34×24 tray with 9 cm high walls, put a little Soffritto on the bottom, add 2 lasagna sheets, then soffritto, grana padano, hard mozzarella, soft mozzarella and béchamel sauce and repeat until you have 5 layers.
On the last layer put lasagna sheets and the rest of the chopped tomatoes (400 ml).
Cover the pan with aluminum foil and place in a preheated oven at 180 degrees for 20 minutes. Then take the tray out of the oven, put the basil leaves on top, then add the remaining hard mozzarella (about 100g) and return the tray to the oven for another 10-15 min.
Wait to cool down, then cut. Garnish with basil leaves.
