INSTRUCTIONS
How to Prepare Bolognese Sauce: Heat the oil in a 4-to-5-quart saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the pancetta, onion, celery and carrot and saut until the onions just begin to color. Add the meat and brown over medium heat. Drain off the fat, add the wine, and reduce by half. Add the stock and let bubble until almost evaporated. Lower the heat, add the milk and cook for one hour with the pot partially covered. Add the tomatoes and cook uncovered for 45 minutes or until the sauce resembles a thick, meaty stew. Season with salt and pepper. How to Prepare Bchamel: Melt the butter in a 3-to-4-quart saucepan over medium-low heat. Sprinkle with flour and whisk until smooth. Continue whisking for about two minutes. Whisk in the milk a little at a time, keeping the mixture smooth. Bring to a slow boil, and stir three to four minutes or until the sauce thickens. Cook for five minutes or until the raw flour taste has disappeared. Season with salt, pepper and nutmeg. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook until the pasta is barely tender, drain, and rinse under cold water to stop cooking. Spread a thin layer of Bchamel sauce (milk sauce) in the bottom of a lasagna dish. Arrange a layer of four overlapping sheets of pasta over the Bchamel. Spread a thin layer of Bchamel over the pasta and then an equally thin layer of the Bolognese sauce. Sprinkle with one to two tablespoons of the grated Parmigiano, and repeat the process with the remaining ingredients. Reserve about 1/3 cup of Bchamel and 1/3 cup of the cheese for the top of the lasagna. Spread the sauce to completely cover the last layer of pasta. Then top with a generous dusting of cheese. Bake the lasagna, covered with foil, for 40 minutes at 350 F. Remove the foil and continue cooking an additional 10 minutes or until hot in the center. Let rest for 10 minutes before cutting. © 1997 Lifetime Entertainment Services. All rights reserved. MC formatted using MC Buster by Barb at PK Converted by MM_Buster v2.0l.
