Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 1 hr 20 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   How to make lasagna with minced meat and mushrooms in the oven? Start by preparing the necessary products. Choose minced meat according to your taste. It can be minced meat from a certain type of meat, for example, only pork or beef, or you can take a mixed one. You can use ready-made minced meat or make it yourself by grinding the meat in a blender or passing it through a meat grinder. Lasagna sheets come in different varieties: some need to be soaked in water, others not. Therefore, read the instructions.

2. STEP 2

   

   Wash the mushrooms and cut into slices.

3. STEP 3

   

   Wash the tomatoes and cut into small cubes. If you wish, you can remove the core with seeds.

4. STEP 4

   

   Peel the onion and cut into small cubes.

5. STEP 5

   

   Grate the cheese. You can use any cheese that melts well. From regular Russian to mozzarella and parmesan.

6. STEP 6

   

   Heat vegetable oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Read about how to choose the perfect frying pan, as well as how to choose the right vegetable oil, in separate articles, links at the end of the recipe. Add the onion and fry until transparent.

7. STEP 7

   

   Add minced meat. Fry, stirring and breaking up any lumps, for about 10 minutes. The finer the minced meat, the tastier the lasagna will be. The minced meat should change color.

8. STEP 8

   

   Add mushrooms and cook, stirring, for another 5-7 minutes until excess moisture evaporates.

9. STEP 9

   

   Add tomatoes and tomato paste to the minced meat. Salt, pepper and mix everything well. Simmer covered for 7-10 minutes. You can add more tomato paste if you want the meat filling to be more juicy.

10. STEP 10

    

    Now prepare Bechamel sauce. Milk of any fat content is suitable for it. You can replace the milk with 10% fat cream. In addition to salt, you can add a little nutmeg or other spices to the sauce to taste.

11. STEP 11

    

    Melt the butter in a frying pan over low heat.

12. STEP 12

    

    Add flour and stir quickly.

13. STEP 13

    

    Pour in hot milk and stir until smooth. Bring the sauce to a boil while stirring constantly. At the end, salt everything and remove the pan from the heat.

14. STEP 14

    

    Place lasagne sheets in one layer on the bottom of the baking dish. I have a form just for one lasagna sheet. If you have a larger mold, you can shape the lasagna not in height, but in length. Read about how to choose a baking dish in a separate article at the link at the end of the recipe. Brush the sheets with cream sauce. Spread some of the meat filling on top and pour the sauce over it. Repeat layers several times until you run out of ingredients.

15. STEP 15

    

    Pour the remaining Bechamel sauce over the top layer and sprinkle with grated cheese. Place the pan in an oven preheated to 180°C and bake the lasagna for about 40 minutes until the cheese crust is golden brown. The exact time depends on your equipment and products. And also the instructions on the package of lasagne sheets. Different manufacturers - different baking times. Decorate the finished lasagna with basil and serve immediately. Bon appetit!
