About

This is lasagne as prepared in southern Italy. In Calabria it is called Sagne Chine; in Campania it is known as Sagna Chiena. There is much room for variation in making this version of lasagne, though little meatballs, artichokes, hardboiled eggs, tomato sauce, and a melting cheese are constant. I will give you the Calabrian recipe and encourage you to try the variations listed as well as some of your own.
