Ingredients

  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 cup chopped onion
  • 1/2 cup chopped celery
  • 1/2 cup chopped carrot
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 can (28 ounces) crushed tomatoes
  • 1 can (6 ounces) tomato paste
  • 1/2 cup red wine (optional)
  • 1/2 cup whole milk
  • 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 10 lasagna noodles, cooked
  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Bolognese sauce

In a large saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the ground beef and cook until browned. Add the onion, celery, carrot, and garlic, and cook until the vegetables are softened.

Step 2: Add the tomatoes and seasonings

Add the crushed tomatoes, tomato paste, red wine (if using), whole milk, nutmeg, salt, and pepper. Stir well to combine. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for at least 2 hours, stirring occasionally.

Step 3: Cook the lasagna noodles

In a separate pot, cook the lasagna noodles according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside.

Step 4: Assemble the lasagna

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). In a greased baking dish, spread a thin layer of Bolognese sauce. Place a layer of cooked lasagna noodles on top, followed by more sauce and a sprinkle of mozzarella and Parmesan cheese. Repeat the layers until all ingredients are used, ending with a generous amount of cheese on top.

Step 5: Bake the lasagna

Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake for 25 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes or until the cheese is golden and bubbly.

Step 6: Let it rest and serve

Remove the lasagna from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes before serving. This will allow the dish to set and make it easier to cut into neat portions. Serve with a fresh green salad or garlic bread for a complete and satisfying meal.

There you have it, a step-by-step guide to making the perfect authentic Bolognese lasagna. Follow these instructions, and you’ll be rewarded with a mouthwatering dish that’s sure to impress. Buon appetito!
