Lasagne al Sugo (Lasagne with Meat Sauce)

Servings: 4-6

Ingredients for Pasta:

  • 300 grams flour
  • 2 eggs

Ingredients for Filling:

  • 300 grams minced beef or pork (or both), cooked in tomato sauce
  • 200 grams peas, cooked with a spring onion
  • 80 grams caciocavallo cheese (or parmesan), grated
  • 200 grams tuma cheese (or soft pecorino)
  • freshly ground pepper, to taste

Directions:

Make a dough with the flour and eggs. Roll it out very thin, and cut into 4-inch squares.

Chop the cooked meat finely, and cook in a tomato sauce.

Mix a few tablespoons of the meat sauce with the peas and onion, tuma cheese, half the caciocavallo cheese, and pepper.

Cook the lasagne, a few at a time, in a large pan of boiling water, strain, and lay separately on a clean cloth. Spoon a strip of the filling onto each lasagna piece, and place side by side in a greased dish or pan.

Cover with the remaining meat sauce, and sprinkle with the remaining caciocavallo cheese.

Bake in a hot oven for about 20 minutes or until the top is golden brown.

Serve hot. Buon Appetito!
