I had this wonderful lasagne at Buzo in Jersey Rd, Paddington, Sydney. After much searching I have adapted this from a recipe by Anna del Conte
Ingredients
- 25g dried porcini
- 500g fresh lasagne sheets
- 150g unsalted butter
- 60g flour
- 1 litre milk
- 400g button mushrooms, sliced
- extra virgin olive oil
- 150g prosciutto slices, finely cut
- 200mls cream
- 3 tablespoons chopped parsley
- salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 150g freshly grated parmesan
- truffle oil
Method
Place the dried porcini in a bowl and cover with boiling water, leave for an hour.
Preheat oven to 210 C
Melt the butter in a saucepan, stir in the flour and cook for 2 minutes. Meanwhile heat the milk until almost boiling and add a little at a time to the sauce whisking as you add.
Heat a little oil in a pan and cook the mushrooms until tender, add to the sauce along with the sliced prosciutto and the porcini with a little of their liquid. Add the cream and the parsley and bring to the boil. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
Butter a lasagne dish and cover the bottom with a layer of pasta. Spread over a layer of sauce, dot with butter and sprinkle with parmesan. Continue the process finishing with a layer of sauce and a sprinkling of parmesan. Bake for 20 minutes.
Splash with truffle oil and then serve.
