About

I am a big fan of any pasta that is baked. For me, it always brings back memories of Sunday family lunches when Nonna used to prepare her pasta al forno for us. It goes without saying that I am a big lasagna lover.

Now, let me ask you, what’s the best part of a lasagna? If you ask me, the answer is the crusty parts on the top and corners with that bit of cheese and béchamel underneath… delicious! With that in mind, I understand why ‘pan-fried’ versions of lasagna have started to pop
