Beef Lasagna for berbuka

Salam Ramadhan. It's already day-14 of fasting. How time flies!
So yesterday i made a little spicy beef lasagna for berbuka. It was my first attempt and alhamdulillah it turned out very good. Hubs ate a lots and there are still few left.

I've referred to two blogs for the recipe especially for the bechamel sauce. Credit to Pet and Cik Epal. And actually it's not that complicated to prepare this dish. As long as you have enough ingredients then you're good to go.
I started to make the bolognese sauce first. Same sauce i always did when i make spaghetti bolognese.

Meat Sauce

Yellow onion - finely diced
Garlic - finely diced
3-4 tbs blended dried chili
1 jar of bolognese sauce
1 tin button mushroom
Finely diced green capsicum
400gm minced meat
salt to taste
ground black pepper
1-2 tbs chili sauce

Cook onion and garlic till it smell nice and a bit yellowish then add in the blended chili. Cook for about 5-7minutes and then add in the minced meat. Cook until the water from the meat is almost dry. Pour in the bolognese sauce followed by the chili sauce. Keep on stirring and add in the button mushroom and the capsicum. Season to taste.


At the same time, i make a bechamel sauce.

Bechamel sauce

1/2 butter
3-4 tbs all purpose flour
500ml fresh milk
1/2 cheddar cheese (5pcs)
salt to taste
ground black pepper

With a small heat, melt the butter and add in the flour. Keep on stir and pour in the fresh milk. Seasoning to taste. Add in the cheddar cheese and turn off the heat.

As for lasagna sheet, immerse the sheet in a hot boil water with a salt and oil until soft. Do not over-soak ya.

So how to stack?

Meat sauce at the bottom layer
Lasagna sheet
Meat sauce
Bechamel sauce

Bechamel sauce

And put on lots of mozarella and parmesan cheese on top

Make sure to preheat the oven first and bake the lasagna at 180deg for 30-40mins until the cheese melted and brown. Wait for about 15 mins before you cut it! No more regret once you eat your own lasagna. No more restaurant-buy lasagna i tell you. hehe.

Till then, daa!~
