Lamb Ragu Lasagna Servings: 12
INGREDIENTS Lamb Bolognese 2 tablespoons olive oil 2 tablespoons butter 1 cup onion, finely chopped ½ cup carrots, finely chopped ½ cup celery, finely chopped 2 pounds Lamb Salt, to taste Pepper, to taste 12 ounces tomato paste 2 cups red wine 1 28-ounce can diced canned tomatoes Garlic Pecorino Bechamel 4 tablespoons butter 2 tablespoons garlic, minced 2 tablespoons flour 2 cups milk 1 cup Pecorino cheese, grated Salt, to taste Nutmeg, a pinch ½ teaspoon white pepper Assembly 1-2 pounds oven-ready lasagna noodles ½ cup parsley, chopped ½ cup basil, chopped 2 cups Mozzarella cheese Parmesan cheese, to taste
PREPARATION Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Add olive oil and butter to a skillet on medium-high heat. Once warmed, add the carrot, onion, celery, garlic, salt, and pper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until golden brown. Once the vegetables have caramelized, add in the ground lamb, salt, pepper, and tomato paste. Stir to combine, breaking up the pieces of meat, until the meat has browned. Once the sauce is dark brown and starting to stick slightly to the bottom of the pan, add the red wine. Scrape the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon to release all the cooked brown bits. Once the wine comes to a simmer, add in the diced canned tomatoes, and stir to combine. Bring the sauce to a simmer and cook for 1-4 hours and then set aside. In a small pan or pot, melt the 4 tablespoons of butter, add the minced garlic, and cook for just minute on low heat. Add in the flour, and whisk until fully mixed with the butter and smooth, to form a roux. Add the milk and whisk into the roux, bring to a simmer and cook until the liquid becomes thick, whisking consistently. Once thick, turn to very low heat, add the Pecorino, salt, nutmeg, and white pepper. Whisk until the bechamel is smooth and the cheese is melted. Set aside. In a 9 x 13-inch baking pan, add a layer of bolognese to the bottom. Top with the oven-ready lasagna noodles, then spread a layer bechamel topped with parmesan, parsley, and basil. Repeat with another layer of noodles, bolognese, noodles, bechamel, noodles, bolognese, mozzarella, Parmesan, parsley, and basil. Bake in the oven for 1 hour or until the noodles are soft, the sauce is bubbling, and the cheese is fully melted and slightly browned and crispy. Serve, Slice, and Enjoy! (with wine!)
