I'm into comfort food now of days...It's cold outside and I need some stick to your ribs,make me feel good and fill me up kind of food...And that's just what Braised Beef Lasagna is..

Check out this recipe-

  • 2 tbsp chopped basil
  • 4 cups Braised Beef Ragout
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • 475 g ricotta
  • 1/3 cup milk
  • 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese, divided
  • 2 tsp finely chopped anchovies(optional....I don't eat fish,so I wouldn't be including this)
  • ¼ tsp ground nutmeg
  • ¼ tsp pepper
  • 360 g fresh pasta sheets
DIRECTIONS:
  • Preheat oven to 375F.
  • Combine parsley and basil and stir 2 tbsp into ragout mixture. Season with salt and set aside.
  • Combine ricotta with milk, 2/3 cup of Parmesan, anchovies, nutmeg and pepper.
  • Spoon 1 cup ragout over the bottom of an 8 x 10 ovenproof casserole dish and spread to the edges. Top with a layer of pasta sheets (heavily overlapping the pasta sheets and trimming edges as needed). Spread on another cup ragout and spoon ” of the ricotta mixture over top. Top with another layer of pasta, ragout and ricotta. Add the last layer of pasta. Spoon remaining ragout and ricotta over and sprinkle with remaining 1/3 cup Parmesan.
  • Cover dish with foil and bake for 30 min. Then remove foil and bake 15 min longer or until sauce is bubbling. Let stand 10 min and sprinkle with remaining 2 tbsp parsley and basil before serving.
I'd have a nice cold beer with this...
