How to Make WHITE LASAGNA Like an Italian...With NO Chicken

If you think lasagna always needs tomato sauce… think again. This white lasagna is a drool-worthy twist on the traditional classic and there’s not a drop of tomato sauce in sight. Instead, each layer is smothered in creamy béchamel, held together with melted mozzarella and provolone, and loaded with beef and mushroom filling that’s so good, you could eat it straight out of the pan. (We won’t judge, instead we'll join you!) 💯 Follow this link to read and print the written recipe: https://www.vincenzosplate.com/white-lasagna-recipe/ #lasagna #lasagne #pasta ========================================== INGREDIENTS For the Lasagna: ½ onion, chopped 1 broccoli A fresh bunch of basil A fresh bunch of parsley, chopped 500 g/17.6oz fresh lasagna sheets 500 g/17.6oz ground beef 200 g/ 7oz mushroom, sliced 200 g/7oz Provolone cheese, diced 200 g/7oz Mozzarella cheese, diced Pecorino Romano/ Parmesan cheese, grated 50 g / 1.75oz butter 1/2 cup of red wine/white wine Extra Virgin Olive Oil, EVOO Salt & Pepper For the Bechamel Sauce: 50 g / 1.75oz butter 2 cups/ 500ml full cream milk 50 g / 1.75oz all purpose flour Nutmeg METHOD Making the lasagna filling: 1) Break the broccoli into small florets by hand, and chop the stem into small pieces. 2) Bring a small pot of water to a boil. Add salt then add the broccoli and boil for about 7 minutes, or until tender, with the lid on. 3) While the broccoli is cooking, heat a generous amount of EVOO and a splash of water in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté for 5 minutes or until it starts to soften, mixing often with a wooden spoon. 4) Add a splash of wine, stir, then add the sliced mushrooms, butter, and chopped parsley. Mix well, then add the ground beef, using a wooden spoon to break it up into smaller pieces and combine everything evenly as it cooks. 5) Season with salt and pepper, then once the beef starts to brown, add the rest of the wine and let it simmer until the excess liquid evaporates. 6) When the broccoli is done, drain it and add it to the pan with the beef and mushrooms. Lightly mash the broccoli into the mixture to help it blend, being careful not to squash them into a puree. Tear the basil leaves into small pieces and sprinkle them in. Turn off the heat and set the filling aside. Making the Bechamel Sauce: 1) Place a deep, small pot over medium-low heat and add 50g of butter. Let it melt slowly, then whisk to combine. 2) Add the flour and stir until fully incorporated then begin adding the milk a small amount at a time, whisking constantly. 3) Continue adding the milk gradually and each time the mixture thickens, pour in a bit more and keep whisking. Take your time and lower the heat if it helps with the process, trying not to avoid or smooth out any lumps. 4) Once all the milk has been added and the sauce is smooth and creamy, add a pinch of nutmeg and stir to combine. Turn off the heat and give it one final whisk to keep it lump-free.
