LASAGNA SICILIANA

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h30m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 tablespoon unsalted butter, melted
1 quart ricotta sopraffina or any whole-milk ricotta
1 large egg
1 bunch fresh flat-leaf parsley, finely chopped, plus extra for garnish
Kosher salt and black pepper
1 quart long-simmered tomato sauce, such as Broders' Sugo Betti, plus extra for serving
2 pounds fresh pasta sheets, such as Broders' Fresh Pasta Sheets (about twelve 10-by-6-inch sheets)
1 pound low-moisture whole-milk mozzarella, shredded
8 ounces Grana Padano or Parmigiano-Reggiano, grated
1 pound bulk hot or mild Italian sausage, cooked, chilled and chopped in the food processor

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Grease a 9-by-13-inch glass baking dish with the melted butter.
  • Place the ricotta, egg, parsley, 2 teaspoons salt and 1 teaspoon pepper in a large bowl and mix thoroughly.
  • Assemble the lasagna by evenly spreading 1/4 cup of the tomato sauce on the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Cover the sauce with some of the raw pasta sheets, cutting and piecing together the pasta as necessary to fit the dish (see Cook's Note).
  • Spread 3/4 cup of the ricotta mixture evenly over the pasta using an offset spatula or your desired utensil. Make sure to get the ricotta to the edges and corners of the dish. Pour 1/2 cup of the tomato sauce onto the ricotta and spread evenly.
  • Sprinkle 1 lightly filled (not packed) cup of the mozzarella over the top, followed by a light handful of Grana Padano and roughly one-fifth of the cooked and chopped sausage. Repeat 4 more times, starting with the pasta.
  • For the sixth and final layer, begin by laying your pasta, then spread the remaining sauce on top. Sprinkle the remaining mozzarella over the sauce. Cover the dish well with aluminum foil to trap in moisture and help the raw pasta cook.
  • Bake, covered, for 30 minutes, then uncover the lasagna and cook until the lasagna has crisped and browned to your liking, 15 to 30 minutes more. Serve with extra warmed tomato sauce and garnish with any remaining Grana Padano and parsley.

TRADITIONAL SUPREME LASAGNA



Traditional Supreme Lasagna image

This is a combination of many lasagna recipes. This version is our favorite and comes close to what I always think of as a true restaurant style lasagna. I like to cook my own noodles, but you can also use no bake lasagna noodles and just add a 1 1/2 cups of water to the bottled sauces. You can also substitute ground beef or chicken for the turkey.

SUPREME LASAGNA



Supreme Lasagna image

Got this recipe from the first cookbook I ever bought. I was right out of high school and had never attempted anything more difficult than a grilled-cheese sandwich. But when I tried this recipe, I fell in love with cooking. This was also the very first time I had ever tried lasagna. Now when ever anyone hears I am cooking lasagna I have a house-full for dinner!

LASAGNA SUPREME



Lasagna Supreme image

I started making this recipe when my husband and I were dating. I can't credit this recipe with our eventual marriage, but he does love lasagna. He even likes this better than his grandma's that he used to request for his birthday meal every year as a kid. Shh...don't tell anyone in his family that! My toddler loves it, too! It's also a great recipe for those who don't like ricotta or soupy lasagnas - it's very firm. I've used feta instead of half of the mozzarella before and that is good as well.
