- ----------
- Step 4
- ----------
- Cover the bottom of a baking dish (in my case with a 26 cm long, 22cm wide, and 5 cm deep metal tray) with lasagne sheets. I usually need 9 sheets for one tray of this recipe.
- ----------
- Step 5
- ----------
- Smooth Ricotta with the Egg with a spoon to a slightly crumbly paste
- ----------
- Step 6
- ----------
- Spread half of the ricotta+egg paste over the lasagne sheets
- Sprinkle a quarter of the mozzarella over the ricotta sauce
- Spread 1/3 of the meat sauce over the mozzarella
- ----------
- Step 7

- ----------
- Step 8
- ----------
- Finally, spread the remainder of the meat sauce over the top, and cover with the remaining mozzarella. Sprinkle parmesan to taste on top.
- (Note: I love a lot of parmesan, and this provides a better cover for the top lasagne sheets while they are cooking. If you do not use parmesan, make sure you use extra sauce or mozzarella)
