Method

1. Begin by preparing the two sauces, then start assembling the layers.
2. Fry the chopped onion in a little oil, add the garlic and sauté until soft.
3. Add the minced meat and stir.
4. When the meat changes color, add the chopped mushrooms and stir.
5. Sprinkle the spices and add the tomato paste and the tomatoes pureed in the blender, and stir.
6. When it boils, leave the sauce to simmer over low heat until ready.
7. Melt the butter in a saucepan over the heat.
8. Once melted, add the flour and stir quickly — it's best to use a hand whisk.
9. Gradually add the milk while stirring continuously so the flour doesn't clump.
10. Add the salt and spices and stir.
11. Let the béchamel simmer over low to medium heat until it thickens, stirring from time to time.
12. In a large glass or Pyrex dish, first arrange a layer of lasagna sheets.
13. Add a layer of Bolognese, then lasagna sheets, then a layer of béchamel, then lasagna sheets... continue until finished, ensuring the final layer is béchamel on top.
14. Place the Pyrex in the oven for about half an hour or until the lasagna is cooked.
15. Sprinkle mozzarella cheese on top and return the Pyrex to the oven; turn on the top heat until the cheese melts and browns slightly.
16. Let the lasagna rest for a few minutes to settle before cutting and serving.
