Directions

FOR MEAT SAUCE
In a large pan, put the ground beef. Cook in medium heat until the color turns brown. Once browned and fat is rendered, remove from heat. Strain to remove excess oil from the rendered fat.
In the same pan, add some oil for sauteing. Add the onion and sauté’ until translucent. Then add the garlic and saute’ for a minute. Stir in the browned beef and saute’s for a few minutes. Add mushroom and saute’ a little.
After sauteing, add the tomato paste and tomato sauce. Stir until well-combined. Add the seasoning like oregano, Italian seasoning, sugar, ground black pepper, and salt to taste. Stir until well-blended. Then, add the beef broth. Cover and let it simmer for 30 minutes in low heat.
After 30 minutes, once the meat sauce is cooked and thick, remove from heat and set aside.
FOR THE WHITE SAUCE
In a pot, using low heat, melt the butter. Add all purpose flour. Stir until smooth. Cook for a few minutes while stirring continuously to avoid burning.
Then, add the milk small amount at a time while continuously stirring to avoid lumps. Let it boil and thicken up.
After around 8 minutes, the sauce should have thickened up a bit. Add salt and pepper to taste. Then, add the cheese. Stir until the cheese has completely melted. Remove from heat and set aside.
ASSEMBLY
In an oven-safe baking dish, spread some meat sauce, followed by a layer of white sauce. Then, add a layer of lasagna sheet.

Beef Lasagna Filipino Style

Filipino style lasagna might be a little different when it comes to classic lasagna. While the classic lasagna uses special cheese and other ingredients, this recipe is cooked with readily-available and easy to get ingredients.

Instead of marinara, I used the typical tomato sauce as one of the key ingredients for the meat sauce. I also used some simple cheese ingredients for the white / cheese sauce, but you can alternate it with better ones (like mozzarella or cottage cheese) if available.

HOW TO COOK LASAGNA WITHOUT OVEN

If you don’t have oven, you can still cook lasagna. There are a few other ways to do it.

For pan-baking, you will need a large wok or deep pan with lid and a wire rack. In this method, you will need to cook this in a stove-top. Pre-heat the pan in low heat for 5 minutes. After 5 minutes, put the wire rack followed by the lasagna in baking dish. Cover and cook in a very low heat for 30 to 40 minutes or until bubbly. In this method, you don’t have to put water in the pan. The dry heat will cook the lasagna.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Just make sure that the pan or pot you’re going to use is made of thick material when trying the pan-baking. As much as possible, avoid stainless steel material as they burn easily.

In a microwave, you will need microwave oven (of course) and microwave-safe baking dish. Layer the lasagna in a microwave safe dish. Microwave for 8 to 10 minutes or until the cheese topping is completely melted.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Never use metal containers when cooking or baking in a microwave oven. Be sure to use glass or ceramic or any microwave-safe containers.

RECIPE NOTES

If you don’t have beef broth, you can use beef broth cube. Dissolve 1 piece of beef broth cube in 1 cup hot water.

To keep the lasagna sheet from sticking together, put in cold water after boiling. This will stop the cooking process and will keep the lasagna sheets firm and al dente.

For the topping, you can use mozzarella cheese if available. You may also sprinkle some parmesan cheese on the top.
