Everybody Loves Raymonds Lasagna Recipes

DORIS ROBERTS' LASAGNA

Steps:

• In a saute pan, fry sausages until cooked through. When cool, slice and set aside. Saute mushrooms and peas in butter, salt and pepper until soft and mushrooms are starting to brown. Set aside.
• Cook noodles according to package. Drain, separate and set aside.
• Slice eggs and set aside.
• In a fairly deep baking dish, ladle a thin layer of sauce on the bottom (only enough to keep the first layer of noodles from sticking to the dish). Line the dish horizontally with noodles allowing a generous overhang. Spoon on a bit more sauce and arrange another layer of noodles vertically (as if your were making a lattice pie crust). You'll use the noodles that hang over the sides of the dish to wrap the lasagna when you're finished building the layers. Scatter a layer of meatballs onto the noodles. (Be sure to mind the amount of residual sauce that is spooned with the meatballs, as to much sauce will make the dish runny and unable to maintain its shape on the dinner plate).
• Add sliced sausage, egg slices, mushrooms and peas on top of the meatballs. Drop generous dollops of ricotta, followed by a handful of shredded mozzarella and sprinkling of parmesan cheese. Repeat layers until the dish is full; this should give you three substantial layers. When construction is complete, fold the overhanging noodles over the top of the dish. Finish with a layer of sauce and some more parmesan.
• Beat one egg vigorously and pour it over the finished lasagna to keep your masterpiece together. Tap dish on counter top to settle layers.
• Bake at 325°F for 30 to 40 minutes.

STEAK PIZZAIOLA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Place the rolls cut-side up on a baking sheet, brush with 2 tablespoons of the olive oil and bake until lightly toasted, 10 to 12 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Season the steaks all over with salt and pepper.
• Add the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil to the skillet and cook the steaks until they reach the desired doneness, about 4 minutes per side for medium rare. Remove to a cutting board to rest.
• Meanwhile, add the roasted peppers, garlic, onions and pepper flakes to the skillet. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Cook until the onions have started to soften, about 3 minutes. Add the tomato paste and cook for 30 seconds. Add the wine, stirring and scraping the bottom to deglaze, another 30 seconds. Add the stewed tomatoes, tomato sauce, pepperoncini and oregano. Bring to simmer and cook for a couple minutes to allow the flavors to come together. Remove from the heat and taste, adjusting the seasonings if needed.
• Slice the steak and shingle over the top of the skillet. Sprinkle over the parsley and Parmesan cheese. Serve with the toasted ciabatta rolls.
