2. Cut the fresh mozzarella into small cubes and set aside.
3. In a saucepan, melt the butter over low heat.
4. Add the flour and stir to create a roux.
5. Gradually whisk in the milk, stirring constantly until the sauce thickens.

Spread a thin layer of ragù on the bottom of the baking dish.
Add a layer of fresh pasta sheets.
Top with ragù, besciamella, mozzarella cubes, and Parmigiano Reggiano.
Repeat the layers until you reach the top.
Finish with a final layer of ragù, besciamella, and Parmigiano.

This looks amazing ❤
This looks so yummy 😋 That Bolognese sauce it's amazing 👏
I can't wait to try it. Thank you for great recipe ❤
I'm so confused, what lasagna doesn't have bolognese/ragu?
my kind of lasagna
Amazing! My mouth was watering!!!❤️👏🏻
What I learned from this video is don’t cook all the noodles at the same time. My mistake in the past and inevitably they get stuck together.
Traditional? Lasagne alla Bolognese that has mozzarella in it? And plain sfoglie? And six layers? And lasagna rather than lasagne?
I imagine that the dish you prepared is delicious, but it is FAR from traditional. The actual traditional recipe has been certified by La Accademia Italiana della Cucina. Take a look at La Vecchia Scuola Bolognese for an example.
Is that 13X5? How many does it feed?
The hair brought me here.
Could I substitute with pesto sauce?
I only noticed his hair 😍😂
i sprinkle some parmesan on top of the ragu at the bottom of the pan.
Ricotta? There is no ricotta in lasagna lol, why do americans put ricotta in lasagna, i hear it all the time, im italian, i only hear this from americans online, lasagna bolognese is all about the ragu, the ragu meat sauce is the most important part, then you add bechamel and parm and Mozzarella is fine, but pls no ricotta
Mamma mia 😮🥰
