Number Of Ingredients 16

1 lb bulk italian sausage
2 c thinly sliced mushrooms
1 medium onion, chopped (1/2 cup)
2 clove garlic, minced
1 Tbsp all purpose flour
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp ground white pepper
1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
1 c milk
1 (15 oz) container ricotta cheese
1 pkg (10 oz) frozen chopped spinach, thawed & squeezed dry
1/2 c grated parmesan cheese
1 large egg, slightly beaten
1/4 tsp crushed red pepper
4 c potatoes, thinly sliced & parboiled
8 oz shredded mozzarella cheese (about 2 cups)

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350°F. In a large pot of boiling, salted water, add sliced potatoes and cook for 5 minutes. Drain well and set aside to cool.
  • 2. Meanwhile, in a large skillet, add the sausage, onions, garlic & mushrooms - cook over medium heat, stirring to crumble, until the sausage begins to brown. Drain off the fat. Stir in flour and nutmeg - season with salt and ground white pepper. Stir in the milk and cook, stirring, until thickened and bubbly. Remove from the heat and set aside.
  • 3. In a medium bowl, combined ricotta cheese, spinach, Parmesan cheese, egg and crushed red pepper - season lightly with salt and ground white pepper.
  • 4. In a 3-quart rectangular baking dish coated with cooking spray, arrange half of the sliced potatoes over the bottom. Spread half of the ricotta mixture and half of the meat mixture on top. Sprinkle with half of the mozzarella cheese. Repeat with remaining potatoes, spinach mixture and meat mixture. Reserve the remaining mozzarella.
  • 5. Cover the dish and bake for 25 minutes. Uncover and sprinkle with remaining mozzarella cheese - place back into the oven and continue to bake until the cheese has melted and the mixture is bubbly around the edges. Remove and let sit for 10 minutes before serving.

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality sausage: The sausage is the star of the show in this lasagna, so it's important to use a good-quality product. Look for sausage that is made with fresh, flavorful meat and spices.
  • Brown the sausage before adding it to the lasagna: Browning the sausage will help to develop its flavor and prevent it from becoming greasy.
  • Use a variety of cheeses: A combination of cheeses will give the lasagna a rich, complex flavor. Try using a combination of mozzarella, Parmesan, and ricotta cheeses.
  • Don't overcook the lasagna: The lasagna is done when the cheese is melted and bubbly and the pasta is tender. Overcooking the lasagna will make it dry and tough.
  • Let the lasagna rest before serving: Letting the lasagna rest for a few minutes before serving will help it to set and make it easier to slice.

Conclusion:

Sausage potato lasagna is a hearty, flavorful dish that is perfect for a family dinner. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own preferences. With a few simple tips, you can make a lasagna that is sure to impress your family and friends.
