LASAGNA/LAZANYA (quick and easy)

Ingredients:

For the meat sauce:

3 tbsp of olive oil

a mix of basil, thyme, parsley, rosemary 1 tbsp or dry Italian seasoning 2 tsp

1 large onion

4 cloves of garlic

1 tbsp of chilli flakes

black pepper ½ tsp

salt to taste (around 1tsp )( remember that cheddar cheese is salty)

ground meat 1 kg (beef or mutton)

chopped tomatoes 800g

water to cook for 30 minutes


For bechamel /white sauce:

butter 4 tbsp

flour 4 tbsp

pinch of nutmeg

pinch of salt

cold milk 3 cups


Pan Size: 22 x 32 cm

.......


one packet of instant/no-boil lasagna sheet or as needed

grated mozzarella cheese

grated light cheddar cheese

grated parmesan cheese (optional)

fresh mozzarella on top (optional)


Time and temperature:

bake at 200°C preheated oven for 35-40 minutes covered then uncover the lasagna and bake another 10-15 minutes to brown the top a bit. ( oven temperature and time may vary)

Notes: 

1. caramelize onion and meat before adding tomato for extra flavour

2. pour milk quickly at once for the smooth bechamel sauce. if you pour slowly the flour will be lumpy and you have to whisk for a long time.

if the sauce thickens a lot add a little more milk or water.

3. if you don't have fresh herbs use around 2 tsp of dry Italian seasoning

4. when adding salt remember that we are adding little salt in every sauce and the cheese is also salty.

5. I used some toothpick to prevent the aluminium foil from sticking to the cheese, remember to take it out before serving.

6. let the lasagna cool down and set before slicing

    2. Cooking is a time-consuming process that involves following a complete procedure. However, with a busy schedule as a dissertation editor Dubai, it is not feasible to do this daily. However, I found this recipe helpful. It can be ready in just few minutes and satisfy my craving for Lzanya.

    1. Works without thyme, grow it yourself if you can't find it already cut, seeds can be purchased online.

  6. Hi, how much water has been used for the meat sauce? and can the meat be substituted with ground chicken?

    1. Use ground chicken if you hate yourself. The amount of water depends on how long you let your sauce reduce. 1/3 of the original can's volume in water or you can add 200-400ml.

  8. Do you think the mozzarella could be substituted with Halloumi and still taste good?

    Replies
    1. What the hell is wrong with you ? Halloumi is made to be grilled, it doesn't melt. Hence it can't be used instead and that's not even diving into how different they are flavour wise or how buffalo mozzarella comes from buffalo milk, not goat or sheep.

      Delete
    2. Its nothing to do with you if the buffalo wants to make halloumi so mind your business

    3. Try it and ruin your lasagna then. Go ahead be my guest.
