Lasagna time. Lasagna with minced meat. Recipe for delicious lasagna in a frying pan – “Uno momento”

Lasagna is a multi-layered Italian casserole cooked in the oven. This dish is a unique union of two cultures. If you think about it, geographically this dish is more suitable for Italian cuisine, which is clearly evidenced by the presence of thick tomato Bolognese sauce in the dish. But on the other hand, it also contains one of the key sauces of French cuisine - bechamel. Both of these sauces, combined with Italian pasta, give birth to a unique dish - lasagna. Durum wheat pasta coated with Italian tomato and French creamy sauces, a large amount of cheese and all baked in the oven. Agree, this is very tasty even by ear. In fact, that's how it is. There are several secrets to making Bolognese and bechamel sauces, which will be discussed below. Preparing them is very simple if you follow a number of recommendations. If everything works out for you, and it will, then you will add a wonderful, simple and delicious recipe for lasagna Bolognese to your recipe book.

Bolognese sauce is actually not even a sauce at all. This is a stew, which within Russia is usually called sauce. And it is prepared in the same way as any other stew - by long stewing. Stick to the recipe and you will have an excellent stew that is ideal for lasagna, pasta and as a main course.

Ingredients:

  • Minced beef – 1 kg.
  • Onions – 1–2 pcs.
  • Carrots – 1 pc. medium size.
  • Celery – 2 stalks.
  • Garlic – 2-3 cloves.
  • Tomatoes in own juice– 1 jar (350–400 ml.)
  • Dry or semi-dry red wine – 50–100 ml.
  • Dry Italian herbs – 2–3 tsp. with a slide. Basil, thyme, rosemary.
  • Salt and pepper to taste.

The recipe for Bolognese stew is quite simple, but requires a little time. First you need to fry the minced meat. Take a large frying pan, pour oil into it and heat it well, but do not overheat it. As soon as a slightly noticeable smoke comes from the frying pan, immediately add the minced meat. It must be constantly stirred and pressed down with a spatula or spoon. Your task is to ensure that the minced meat becomes not only crumbly, but also fried well. First it will start to sizzle, then it will release a lot of juice and only after the juice has evaporated will it begin to fry. Get a nice brown crust. Once the juices have evaporated, this may take 5 to 10 minutes, depending on the diameter of your pan. Place the minced meat in a large saucepan with a lid and set aside; you will need it a little later.

To give future lasagna an even more expressive taste, you should also add vegetables to the sauce. The Italians call a mixture of fried onions, carrots and celery - sofrito. They prepare it for future use by rolling it into jars. We will prepare it. Cut the onion, carrots and celery into small cubes. Chop the garlic very finely. Pour a little vegetable oil into the same frying pan in which the minced meat was fried. It would be good if you did not wash the pan after frying, as a lot of tasty food remained on it. Heat the oil and fry the vegetables, stirring constantly until the onions are golden brown. Add the garlic at the very end so as not to lose its flavor.

Transfer the vegetables to the minced meat and turn on the heat under the pan. As soon as it warms up, pour the wine into it and evaporate for 5 minutes. Add tomatoes in their own juice, Italian herbs, pepper and salt. Cover with a lid and simmer over low heat for about 2 hours. You can prepare this sauce in the oven. Just cover with a lid or foil and simmer in an oven preheated to 150 degrees for the same time. This will make the sauce even more tender, since the heating in the oven is more uniform than on the stove. At the end, taste for salt and add salt if necessary. If the sauce is too thick, thin it with a little water. There should be enough liquid to saturate the lasagne sheets while baking.

One of the 5 basic sauces in French cooking, the recipe for which does not include a large number of ingredients, and it is not difficult to prepare.

Ingredients:

  • Butter – 50 gr.
  • Wheat flour – 50 gr.
  • Milk – 350–400 ml. About 2 glasses, maybe a little more.
  • Salt, ground white pepper, nutmeg ground.

There is no exact recipe for this sauce. It always depends on the flour and butter which you are using. But don’t be alarmed, we will learn how to cook it, so to speak, by eye.

Place a piece of butter in a saucepan and melt it over medium heat. Wait until it starts to bubble and add about the same amount of flour and mix well with a whisk. The consistency of this mass should resemble wet sand, i.e. be a little viscous, but not dry. Fry the flour until a distinct nutty smell appears. At the same time, the color of the flour mass will change from light to slightly golden. As soon as the kitchen smells like nuts, add milk in 3-4 additions, stirring well with a whisk each time. If the boil is too intense, remove from heat periodically, but reheat after stirring. Season with salt, add nutmeg and white pepper. You can use black if you want. White pepper is usually used because its grains are not as noticeable in the sauce as black pepper. The sauce should be quite thin, as it will thicken when it cools. Dip a spoon into it and look at it back side. The sauce should stick to it a little and if you blow on it, a wave-like pattern will appear, which the French call a “rose.” Remove from heat and stir every 2 minutes for 10-15 minutes. This will prevent a milky film from appearing on the sauce.

Then everything is simple - all that remains is to assemble the lasagna, preheat the oven and, in addition to the 2 already prepared sauces, a little more cheese. Any you like, but it must be semi-solid so that it melts well and stretches when cut after baking.

Preheat the oven to 170-180 degrees and start assembling the lasagna. Depending on the manufacturer, lasagna sheets may need to be boiled a little. The pasta package will tell you this, so cook according to the directions on it.

Select a baking dish and pour some white sauce. Distribute it evenly. Place lasagna sheets on top, then Bolognese tomato sauce, a little white French and of course cheese. Continue until you have at least 3 layers. The latter is usually coated only with white sauce and sprinkled with cheese. Bake in the oven for about 35–40 minutes. Then be sure to let the lasagna cool for 20-30 minutes. While it cools, the pasta abundantly absorbs all the juices from the sauces and the lasagna will be very juicy. Cut into rectangular pieces that are convenient for you and enjoy your meal.

Italy many people associate with pizza, pasta and LASAGNA. And if you won’t surprise anyone with pizza now, lasagna has not yet become so widely known, although it deserves it!

Now you can easily try lasagna in any cafe or restaurant. But, my advice to you is to try making lasagna at home, and you will never order it in a cafe again, because it’s better at home!

Yes, lasagna is a little time consuming to prepare, it will take you a couple of hours to prepare it. But I will give you one more piece of advice, and if you listen, you will be simply happy (forgive my indiscretion, but I myself am delighted with this idea)!

And the little secret is that if you still have to tinker with the preparation, then it’s worth preparing a large portion or even two servings (well, about two, maybe I’ve gone too far) Cook a lot, as much as you can eat, eat it, and the rest is lasagna divide into portions, pack in cling film, bags, molds - as convenient for you, and put them in the freezer (naturally, the lasagna should be cooled well first; in addition, only when cold can it be cut into even, beautiful pieces, and when hot or warm you will never cut it beautifully). And when you come home from work and you don’t have any time to bother with cooking, frozen lasagna will come to your rescue! Just empty it from the packaging and put it in the oven for about 30 minutes. While you are changing clothes, washing your hands, setting the table and calling your husband and children to the table (you can still have time to prepare a salad of fresh vegetables), the lasagna is already warmed up, all you have to do is wish your loved ones Bon appetit!

More practical advice To reduce cooking time: divide cooking into 2 days. On the first day, prepare the sauces, cool and put in the refrigerator. And the next day, assemble and bake the lasagna. You will do all this casually, and the result will be amazing!!!

And finally, if you want to prepare lasagna for guests, also prepare the ingredients for lasagna in advance, assemble it completely, sprinkle with cheese, tighten cling film and put it in the refrigerator. Those. the night before, you prepared everything. And the next day, all you have to do is transfer the lasagna from the refrigerator to the oven, set the table, wait for guests and receive compliments!

P.S. Just remember that lasagna is difficult to cut into even pieces when hot. Just accept this as a fact, stock up on a SHARP knife and cut it smartly, without bothering with the evenness of the pieces. After all, the main thing about lasagna is its amazing homemade taste!

Fun facts about lasagna

Should you cook lasagna sheets before baking?- if you are preparing the dish for the first time, then definitely “cook” it so that the pasta sheets are definitely soft. Also, if the sauce turns out to be thick, then there will not be enough liquid in it to cook the lasagne sheets in the oven.

To prevent the lasagna from turning out dry, it is important to place the minced meat on the top layer, because the sauce will in any case be absorbed into the lower layers, and the oven will slightly dry the top one. This is even good for minced meat with cheese - you get an appetizing crust. But lasagna sheets, when dry, will make the dish dry. If the oven is hot, you can cover the lasagne pan with foil.

If the lasagna still turns out a little dry, you can fix it in 2 ways:
Method 1, less labor-intensive and risky: remove dry lasagne sheets, place all the minced meat from the dried layers on top and sprinkle cheese on top, then lightly brown the cheese in the oven.
Method 2, more labor-intensive: add sauce and “finish” the top layers. It is important to take into account here that the lower layers will also cook and may turn into porridge.

The best cookware for baking lasagna - square, thick-walled baking dishes in which layers of lasagna are placed without leaving any free space around the edges.

Lasagna is very high-calorie dish - about 500 kcal/100 grams.

The bechamel recipe is not that complicated - we need butter, flour, milk, salt, pepper and a pinch of nutmeg to make this wonderful sauce.

  2. The bottom and top layers of lasagna need to be poured with more sauce than the middle layer.
  3. Some recipes recommend using Parmesan cheese on top. However, any other hard cheese will easily work for this.
  4. After turning off the oven, it is advisable to let the lasagna cool. Right away, when it’s hot, it will be “watery” and less aesthetically pleasing.


The entire cooking process can be divided into three stages: preparing the meat, preparing the sauce, and baking the lasagna.

Stage of preparing meat (minced meat) for lasagna:

1. Pour boiling water over the tomatoes for one minute, then with cold water. Remove the skin from the tomatoes.


2. Peel the onion and chop finely. We will also prepare the carrots and grate them on a coarse grater. Peel the garlic and chop finely.

3. Grind the tomatoes into a paste using a blender.


4. Sauté onions and carrots in vegetable oil until half cooked.


5. Add minced meat to the sautéed vegetables and fry. At the same time, it is important to make it fine-grained - for this, stirring, divide it into small pieces. Add seasonings.


6. When the minced meat is ready, add tomato paste from pureed tomatoes and garlic. Simmer for another 10-15 minutes and set aside to cool. The meat is ready for lasagna!


Preparation of bechamel sauce:

1. Heat the milk and melt the butter in it.


2. Add flour, stirring constantly. Boil until the consistency of liquid sour cream.

3. Add seasonings to taste.

4. Beat the sauce with a blender until smooth.


Baking lasagna at home:

So, after everything is ready, you can “assemble” the lasagna together. The “assembly” algorithm looks like this:

  • 1st layer: lasagna sheets, overlapping 1 cm.


  • 2nd layer: bechamel sauce.


  • 3rd layer: half of the minced meat.


  • 4th layer: 1/3 cheese.


  • Layer 5: lasagna sheets.
  • 6th layer: bechamel sauce.
  • 7th layer: the rest of the minced meat.
  • 8th layer: 1/3 cheese.
  • Layer 9: lasagna sheets.


  • 10th layer: the rest of the bechamel sauce.


Bake lasagna in an oven heated to 170-180 degrees for 40 minutes. 5 minutes before turning off the oven, sprinkle the remaining grated cheese on top of the pie.

A simple recipe for lasagna from pita bread with minced meat at home


For cooking you will need products:

  • Minced pork and beef – 500 g.
  • Milk – 0.5 l.
  • Flour - half a glass.
  • Ketchup – 150 g.
  • Onion – 1 large onion.
  • Carrots – 1 large.
  • Cheese – 250-300 g.
  • Butter – 50 g.
  • Vegetable oil - a couple of tablespoons, for sautéing.
  • Pita.
  • Seasonings to taste.
  • Garlic – a few cloves, to taste.


Preparation of minced meat filling:

1. Peel the onions and carrots. Finely chop the onion and grate the carrots on a coarse grater. Sauté onions and carrots for 15-20 minutes over medium heat.


2. Add minced meat and ketchup to the onions and carrots, fry until done. When frying, it is important to use a spatula to separate the meat so that it has a fine-grained consistency.


3. Add seasonings. Turn off the gas, cover with a lid and let sit for 10 minutes.


Preparing the sauce:

1. Heat milk, butter, grated cheese in a saucepan.


2. Gradually add flour and seasonings.

3. Boil for 5-7 minutes, beat with a blender.

Let's make lasagna from pita bread in a slow cooker:

1. Place a sheet of pita bread into the multicooker bowl, first lining the bottom with parchment paper. If the shape of the pita bread is square, the edges can be folded.


We line the multicooker bowl with parchment paper, and only then put food into it. You can also use a baking sleeve. Then the lasagna can be easily removed from the bowl by grabbing the ends of the paper or film.

2. Place half of the minced meat filling, pour in 1/3 of the sauce.


3. Repeat the layers again: pita bread, minced meat, sauce.


Lasagna is prepared in three steps: the filling is made, then the bechamel sauce is boiled, and then the lasagna itself is assembled. You can use a slow cooker for each of them, but then you will have to wash the bowl each time to proceed to the next step. Therefore, it is best to cook the filling and sauce in a frying pan and bake the lasagna in a slow cooker.


4. Final layer: pita bread + remaining sauce. Sprinkle with grated cheese.

Lasagna in a slow cooker does not get a golden brown crust like in the oven. To make lasagna look appetizing, the top layer should be cheese.


4. Place the bowl in the multicooker and turn on the baking mode.

5. After 40 minutes, the lasagna is ready! However, you should not take it out immediately, since the sauce has not yet thickened.

Recipe for delicious lasagna in a frying pan – “Uno momento”

Lasagna in a frying pan is a quick, tasty, satisfying and special recipe. To make it delicious, the frying pan must be non-stick, and the mood must be mischievous and cheerful. Like Alexander Abdulov and Semyon Farada, when they performed the immortal hit “Uno momento”, which translated means “One moment”, in the film “Formula of Love”.


Ingredients:

  • Flour – 0.5 kg
  • Eggs – 3 pcs.
  • Mineral water
  • Salt, garlic - to taste
  • Minced meat – 0.5 kg
  • Tomato paste – 1.5 tbsp. l
  • Fresh tomatoes – 3 pcs.
  • Small zucchini – 1 piece
  • Carrots – 2 pcs.
  • Onion – 1 pc.
  • Butter – 50 g
  • Vegetable oil 3 tbsp. l
  • Cheese – 100 g
  • Dill, parsley, basil - to taste

How to cook lasagna in a frying pan:

At the very beginning, you have to choose the lasagna base option - ready-made purchased Italian sheets or homemade dough. For this recipe, we will prepare the dough ourselves if there are no ready-made lasagna sheets.

1. Sift the flour through a sieve and spread it in a mound.

2. Make a “crater” in the middle of the slide and drive three eggs into it. Knead the stiff dough, gradually adding a small amount of(no more than 50 mg) mineral water. Don't forget to add flour to the board.

3. Preparing the dough and rolling out the dough sheets is the most time-consuming part of the work, but if you try, the result is worth it. Along the way, you can hum the song of the Italian retinue of Count Cagliostro. Knead until the stubborn mass under your hands turns into an elastic and smooth dough. Set it aside for 20-30 minutes, covering with cling film.

4. Finely chop the peeled and washed two carrots, zucchini and onion.

5. Place a piece of butter and three tablespoons of vegetable oil (olive or sunflower) in a heated frying pan. Gradually add all the vegetables - onions, carrots, zucchini - into the heated oil and fry them until they become transparent and acquire a light golden hue.

6. Add minced meat to the frying pan (beef, veal or chicken to your taste), mix together with vegetables and fry over low heat, stirring occasionally. First add salt and pepper to the minced meat. Minced beef or pork is stewed for 30-40 minutes, chicken or turkey - about 20 minutes.

7. Let's return to preparing the dough sheets. Divide the dough into approximately six equal parts and roll them out thinly with a rolling pin, from the center to the edges. If you have a machine for rolling out dough, you can use it. The thinner the dough, the better. If you don’t have time, you can remove the minced meat from the heat for a while and cover the pan with a lid.

8. Cut the rolled out dough into leaves and place them on top of the minced meat in one layer. We dry the remaining leaves, put them in craft paper or a cloth bag in a dry place and use them to make the next lasagna. Before placing the blank sheets on the minced meat, immerse them in boiling water for two minutes. It’s not scary if the leaves overlap somewhere - they are thin and the dough is fresh, so they are guaranteed not to be raw.


9. Place fresh chopped tomatoes on the dough layer. We use it in winter

10. Dilute 1.5 tablespoons of tomato paste in boiled water and pour lasagna on top in a frying pan. The liquid should completely cover all layers.


11.Simmer until done, about 20 minutes. We regulate the process of evaporation of the diluted sauce - if the liquid becomes low, cover the lasagna with a lid and continue to simmer over low heat.


12. Grate the cheese on a coarse grater.

13. Sprinkle the lasagna with cheese before removing it from the stove.


14. Sprinkle the finished dish with parsley, dill and basil. Basil leaves add a unique flavor to lasagna.


Delicious and fun lasagna in a frying pan “Uno momento” is ready!


It is good hot or cold. So satisfying that it replaces lunch or dinner. This is a real tasty morsel!
