I ended up getting a taller pan after this variant. |
Over the past year or so I've been having some fun trying to make a lasagna I'm happy with. I've started with the recipe in the "Joy Of Cooking" (1997 edition, boy that style of ingredients in the middle of recipe is annoying) which is based around a ~5 hour tomato sauce recipe.
Almost done. |
For the sauce, I've done a couple of dozen small variants (switch out the beef for any of ribs, pork, lamb, a split of 2 meats) trying out fresh versus canned tomatoes, etc. All of which have been enjoyable, but I think the original beef is the best. But I've yet to try goat yet.
The first hour of making tomato sauce doesn't involve any tomatoes at all. |
For the lasagna they include sausage in it (which is like a backfill version of a classic italian sunday gravy), and while I've enjoyed the spicy Italian sausage, overall it does make it a bit meaty. The meatballs made from the meat that was braised in the sauce are probably enough.
It's funny that you make the meatballs then break them up as you layer the ingredients together. |
Anyway, as I've been on this I found out this book was coming out. It's now here and am going to try and cook the noddle dishes in there which by my count is 34 (35 if you count the nutellasagna which I'm not sure if I do or don't.)
Into the oven my pretty! |
