    RAGÙ ALLA BOLOGNESE
    500g of pork mince
    500g of beef mince
    100g of pancetta, cubed (optional)
    1 Med onion, finely diced
    2 sticks of celery, finely diced
    1 large carrot, peeled and finely diced
    2 bay lefts
    200ml of red wine, or white
    1 can 800g of chopped tomatoes
    5 tbsp of olive oil
    salt
    freshly ground black pepper
    LASAGNE
    Pyrex pan 35x24x6cm / 4-6 portions
    16 sheets of lasagne pasta, preferably fresh, have extra on hand
    100g of parmigiano reggiano, or pecorino, grated
    400g Ricotta
    300g Mozzarella di Bufula
    1 large egg
    Salt
    Fresh Basil large handful
    To begin, we make the ragù. Heat 4 tbsp of oil in a heavy-based pan and brown the mince (Do this in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan) Once nicely browned, remove from the pan. If there is a lot of fat, drain most of it away then set aside the cooked mince meat.
    Wipe the pan out with some kitchen paper, then sauté the pancetta in 1 tbsp of olive oil, if you are adding this.
    Next, we make the Soffritto. add the onions, celery and carrot to the pan and sautée for about 5 minutes, but don’t allow them to colour
    Add the mince to the pan, stir everything together and add the wine. Turn up the heat and reduce the liquid by half.
    Next, we add the canned tomatoes. Turn on a low heat, stir well and put a lid on the pan
    Leave this to simmer for 2-3 hours, stirring occasionally, it is important not to let this burn. So set a timer to remind yourself to check.
    Once the ragù is ready (which can be made a day before if needed) it’s time to start layering the lasagna
    Preheat the oven to 180°C/350°F - check your oven to make sure it is at the correct temperature.
    Begin with a layer of ragù, start with some tomato sauce, a sprinkling of Parmesan then layer the lasagna sheets. Add the Ricotta to the middle layer. The final layers should be lasagna topped with some sauce, Mozzarella and a good grating of Parmesan
    Bake in the oven for 45 minutes, covering the top with foil to prevent it from browning too quickly. Remove from the oven and serve with more Parmesan and fresh basil.

    A good tip to prepare mozzarella (especially bufala) is to cut it, then put in on a plate and set the plate to a tilt. Water will flow to the bottom half of the plate and you'll have dry mozzarella to use. I'd also dry the pasta sheets, but your sauce was good and dry and you also used ricotta instead of besciamella (like in Naples), so it's probably fine. In Italy we can also buy a type of rough dry lasagna sheets that cooks in the oven with the sauce, and they're relatively thick. I also learned a few tricks from this video. We usually make all the layers similar (pasta -> sauce -> mesciamella/ricotta -> cheese(s)), and I might actually like your way more.

    This is definitely on my "make" list. It looks and sounds delicious. For convenience, I have usually used "no boil" lasagna sheets and a looser sauce. Now that I have seen this, it will be great to try the technique you demonstrated with the noodle. Thank you!
    To follow this up, maybe you could make a Jamie inspired version of what I like to call Paella-sagna. You start with a chorizo based sauce, add kumquat for some bitterness and acidity, and use Chinese five spice instead of saffron. For the pasta, substitute flattened and dried hot dog rolls and tortilla chips... Or maybe this would be the Jack version.

  • @mykelevangelista6492
    @mykelevangelista6492 2 місяці тому +8

    Just a comment from an Italian - if you can find good quality egg dried lasagne sheets, you would be better par-boiling then first. This makes them easier to fit into your dish and also prevents that kind of powdery texture if you just put them in dry.
    Also, I never use bechamel sauce, but I know many people do.

    This Lasagne recipe looks real classy, and i like the fact chef mentioned you can customize as you like, i would like to suggest to anyone making homemade tomato sauce, just char a pepper of your choice over flame, remove skin and blend it along with tomatoes while making sauce, this adds a Smokey flavour to the dish.

    Chef James, your lasagna looked absolutely delicious! Since I am also a Vincenzo's Plate fan, I will link this video and ask him to do a review. Honestly, I think you did stellar, and think Vincenzo would agree as you used excellent ingredients, except for a couple, which we all have to do because of availability or time. Side note on basil, love it, use it whenever tomatoes are in a recipe, and have a pot growing on my windowsill so I always have fresh. A heavenly herb. Great video!

    Chef James, Brian Tsao, Frenchie and Vincenzo are some of the channels I enjoy the most this year, I hope he does a collab with you soon, if anybody criticizes anyone using spanish olive oil and wine, let me remind them that Spaniards know their trade well, and they were at some point part of the Roman Empire... So in my book it is as legit as the Italian stuff.
    I think Vincenzo will ding you on the pasta sheets but will approve overall, it looks absolutely delicious!!!

    I made your recipe last night for dinner for me, my partner, and our really good friend. The food was delicious. This was my first time using red wine in tomato sauce and it's a game changer for me. OMG it was so good! After watching Vincenzo's reaction video and suggesting to add milk to stretch the sauce instead of water, it was really good. I'm hoping to look at your other recipes too 😊. Thank you so much for creating this channel. I hope you get more subscribers from this.

    @lynnefromthelake 2 місяці тому +1

    Love the recipe. That is very similar to my recipe. The biggest difference is that I add a little more spice to my bolognese such as oregano, parsley and thyme. I found the tip about salting and peppering at every step to be very helpful. I actually use a peeler on my celery, just because! All peels go in the garden. I just love your knife skills. I'm like a bull in a china shop with my knives. I cannot seem to keep them sharp no matter what I do. I'm flummoxed. Thank you so much.

  • @AdamFloro

    Definitely not the traditional fresh pasta, bechamel, ragu, and parmigiano, with passata at the bottom. But definitely on my make list. My Vincenzo predictions are as follows: Bolognese ragu is cooked too fast, brunoise is a waste of time, just use a blender, no bechamel, and some form of “I used to use herbs, but I don’t anymore”, possibly the inclusion of “I don’t put cheese on top of mine”. Can’t wait to see how I did 😅

  • @DEVAEGIR
    @DEVAEGIR 10 днів тому

    Watched this first on Vinnie's channel, so commented there first. I found interesting how you add a separate layer of the ricotta. An excellent idea. I do it more meaty, generally avoiding putting much inside, apart from the ragout and a bit of parmigiano. My wife, on the other hand, does add the bechamel (we haven't tried ricotta; we will), and she adds regato instead of parmigiano. I have to admit, mine comes just a hint drier than hers. But I use quite a bit of wine when doing the ragout, and keep it on low heat for longer, so that it remains more moist, to compensate.
