    Recipe



    Heat oil in a large saucepan or skillet. Add onion and garlic and sauté until tender but not brown. Add ground beef and sausage and stir until brown and crumbly. Pour off fat. Add rest of sauce ingredients (through fennel) and bring to a boil; reduce heat and cook slowly, uncovered, for 2 hours. Stir occasionally.

    In large bowl, mix together ricotta, cottage cheese, and egg.

    In large kettle, bring three quarts water to a boil. Add lasagna noodles, two or three at a time. Boil, uncovered, for 10 minutes. Drain and rinse with cold water. Dry on dish towels.

    Preheat oven to 375º. In bottom of a 9x13" pan, spoon 1 1/2 cups meat sauce. Place 6 noodles, overlapping each other. Spread 1/2 ricotta cheese mixture over noodles, then 2/3 cup Mozzarella cheese. Spoon 2 cups sauce over the cheese, then sprinkle with 1/4 cup Parmesan. Repeat layering.

    If freezing, wrap dish tightly with foil. Thaw before baking. Bake for 45 minutes with pan loosely covered with foil. Remove foil and bake 15 minutes more. Let stand 15 minutes before cutting.
