What is your favorite dish to cook at home?
One of my favorite dishes to cook at home is a classic homemade lasagna. There's something incredibly satisfying about layering fresh ingredients and watching it come together. I start with a rich meat sauce, simmering ground beef with garlic, onions, and a blend of Italian herbs. The aroma fills the kitchen and sets the stage for the rest of the dish.
Next, I prepare a creamy ricotta mixture, blending it with fresh basil, egg, and a sprinkle of Parmesan. The layering process is where the magic happens: I alternate between sheets of pasta, the meat sauce, the ricotta mixture, and a generous amount of mozzarella cheese.
After assembling, I cover it with foil and bake it until bubbly, then remove the foil for the last few minutes to get that perfect golden crust. The best part is letting it rest before serving, allowing the flavors to meld. It's a labor of love, but the end result is a comforting, hearty meal that brings everyone together. Plus, it's even better the next day!
