    Send the lasagna to the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes at 190-200 degrees (focus on your oven, an appetizing golden crust should form on the lasagna). Remove the finished dish from the oven and let it brew for about 10 minutes. Cut the lasagna into portions and arrange on plates. Serve hot.

To make lasagna, you can use any minced meat or mix several types of meat.

At the stage when the minced meat is stewed in a frying pan, you can add a pinch of dry basil or other favorite seasonings.

Ready-made lasagna sheets can be bought in almost any store these days. Most often, the cooking instructions do not require pre-boiling the dough. But if you use a small baking dish, in which it is difficult to fit a dry layer, then it is better to hold the sheets in boiling water for about two to three minutes, so they will become soft and pliable and they can easily be placed in any shape, and the excess edges cut off with a knife.
