Check out the recipe: www.allrecipes.com/Recipe/233661/Chef-Johns-Lasagna/
The recipe says 1/2 freshly ground pepper. A half of what? Tablespoon I guess, right?
I make this recipe every year on Thanksgiving! Thanks, it's delicious and I can't wait to make it again this year!!
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Out of curiosity I googled the best cooking channel on You-tube and to my surprise, you wouldn't believe who the #1 channel is?

Wow, your speech pattern is so different 9 years ago 😂 but your skill is the same as always ❤
Scary how even after you die, the legacy you've left will be seen as a profecional cook in the eyes of everyone who comes across your videos. But we'll be here hopefully seeing your growth ove the years
I used the exact measurements but only got 1 portion
FUNNIEST. COMMENT. EVER!!
Buddysimo Simonetta actually italian lasagna does not have eggs in the sauce, only in the dough of the pasta (lasagna is also the name of this specifico type of pasta).
And there is no such a thing like cheese sauce, we just use beschamel sauce and grated parmesan in every layer
I have no idea what is the tipical italoamerican recipe but i think it might work as we'll even togh the original bolognese recipe it's quite different
Yep. I use two eggs. No mushrooms. No meat sauce on the top layer...just plain sauce then the cheese. I cook for 45 then uncover and broil for 15. It's a tricky dish. 10 years ago i was throwing away leftovers. Now people come over and want to take some home with them. It's always gone.
WyvernKiller02 lol the second time I cooked it I made sure I got extra sauce.. the sauce is the problem
HAHAHA YAAAAS
I’ve been making this exact recipe for the past 10 years, it has become part of our family Christmas dinner tradition ❤
Ha! I am making this for my mom tomorrow. Can't wait, this guy is the best.
Trying it to the first time tonight for Christmas Eve! Can’t wait to try it!
Gonna try it for Jan. 6, three kings day. 🎉
@@xuancarloshdz I made a variation of this for my mom and myself for Christmas and it was the best lasagna I have ever had. I will never buy store bought again. I ate half the dang pan.
Same! It's the best one I've seen and made ❤
10 years after here I am watching this video, this man has one of the best cooking channels on youtube
Me too i literally came back to this 11 years
Hi Luis...One of the absolutely "best TH-cam cooking channels" is right on...I love how casual & down to Earth Chef John is with his wickedly funny humor!!! I love the guy... 😊
Same. Chef John is the very best!
Sir, I need to sit you down and talk to you! This is absolutely delicious. I am so happy with the outcome. I've made lasagna in the past but haven't made it in years. Made this at 11pm and am sitting in bed at 2am enjoying this hearty meal. I work nights so this is normal for me. The only ingredient I didn't have was the Italian parsley. Fantastic. Thank you!!
Can you send me some? My arthritis is killing me these days. 😂👍
Hi 👋🏻 there happy Halloween 🎃 🎉how are you doing today hope you’re having a wonderful day 0:04
I have made this twice. Once in 2013 as part of a lasagna contest which I won. And once last week for a friend who had a death in the family. No food can heal grief but I think this comes close. Seriously A+. I'm going to have to make it again soon.
this is very random but the day my dad died one of my mom's friends brought over dinner for us and it was lasagne and i think i will always remember how comforting it was. so 100% agree with what you said
Having a hearty meal in difficult moments will definitely soothe the soul.
Hi 👋🏻 there happy Halloween 🎃 🎉how are you doing today hope you’re having a wonderful day
now i am going to make it !!!!
All 8 years later, this recipe is still relevant. Thanks for the post.
Wouldn't be 9 years?
@@gabrielviveiros6272
I can't stand it anymore. I've waited all these years...I making this lasagna!!!
@@daal9335 you better do a good one
@@gabrielviveiros6272
LoL...of course ; )
Have you made it yet?
@@daal9335 in my family we make lasagna almost every holly day but in a different way
I did it at least 5 times already, it never failed to kick ass! Everyone who tried loved it! Thank you!
Do you notice the mushrooms? Not a huge fan
But open to trying them in this recipe
@@megane617 You don’t feel mushrooms much, but if you can always skip them 🙊
how long did it take for u to cook?
Wow...I was cooking your recipes back in 2010. I was with my ex and she loved your recipes. Fast forward 13 years later, I'm married to someone else with twins and everyone still loves your recipes. Just so you know, you've given many of us lifetime memories....thank you❤️
He sounds like Garfield and he's makin lasagna. 😁
stephanie izazaga youre so right so funny lolll
+stephanie izazaga I thought the same exact thing!!! Hahahahahaha!
yeah yeah and lasagna is Garfields favorite meal ..
I wish I could favourite this comment lol
Omg! Is that why I love his voice so much?? He reminds my subconscious mind of Garfield? Lol. Awesome.
I made this for my family today for Christmas Eve. They loved it! Thank you, Chef John. You taught me how to cook! I show your channel to every foodie I know! I even got my mom hooked on your recipes! Have a merry Christmas!
Been watching this guy forever…. He just always knows the authentic truth about food. Never missed.
Never cooked in my 42 yrs. Chef John has inspired me. Thank you!!!
Wow 11 years later and I’m still watching this video,, I love the lasagna and make it often..
solid recipe.
This was the by far the tastiest lasagna recipe I’ve ever tried!!!! Thank you for sharing your recipe! I added fresh basil along with the parsley to the cheese mixture & red bell pepper to the meat sauce. This is one yummy lasagna!!! Again, thank you!
Hi 👋🏻 there happy Halloween 🎃 🎉how are you doing today hope you’re having a wonderful day
This video is 10 years old but it’s still timeless because Chef Johns puns are on point
I made this recipe years ago and it was a hit. I always wanted to make lasagna and this channel, provided me the confidence to make it. Much appreciation & fond memories.
Wow!!! I made this with all ground beef and all of the mentioned fresh cheeses and it was without a doubt the best Lasagna I have eaten in my life! And this was the first Lasagna I have ever made. My sister has made Lasagna for years for our family gatherings and I have eaten Lasagna at fine Italian restaurants as well. And I still stick to my claim as this one being THE BEST LASAGNA I have ever had. Ingredients matter. If you're going to go to the trouble and expense of making this Lasagna, do yourself a favor and go that extra mile. Buy the good fresh soft mozzarella, reggiano parmigiano, a nice quality marinara sauce and whole milk ricotta cheese. The results will speak for itself! I bought a nice Pfaltzgraff Lasagna pan prior to searching and finding this extraordinary recipe. Thank you very much Chef John for this amazing recipe. If I could attach photos I would be happy to. Deb
I agree. Putting american cheese or powdered parmesan cheese is a disservice to the lasagna and can make or break it.
This IS by far the best lasagna recipe ever!!!
My family's favorite. 🍝🍴
I usually make a labor intensive Lasagna Bolognese. I saw your recipe for this sausage and beef lasagna and thought I would give it a try. I have made several of your recipes through the years so I knew it had to be pretty good.
It is fantastic! A lot less labor intensive than a classic Bolognese with bechamel sauce but it did not lack for flavor or texture. My wife said it is 'delicious'.
Thanks, Chef John!
Why is a bechamel less labor intensive than his cheese filling mixture?
Chef John is awesome! Theres nothing he cant make! His voice tutorials are the greatest! Love this guy!!! I follow him bigtime! I've made a few of his recipes! Hes a bottomless pit of culinary delights! Keeps it simple but techniques are excellent and thoroughly explained while keeping you engaged even if its just listening and watching for fun! Hes super popular! Xoxo
Hi 👋🏻 there happy Halloween 🎃 🎉how are you doing today hope you’re having a wonderful day 0:04
I made this 2 years ago I believe and followed all your instructions and it came out real delicious!,it was my very first time doing lasagna!,thanks for sharing your recipe!!
This has been my go to lasagna for more than a decade. Still the best ever! Thank you so munch chef John...greetings all the way from Indonesia
its my friends birthday tomorrow and she wanted lasagna so i wanted to give her something special, after all the food wishes recipe's i've tried I know she'll love this. thanks John even though this is one of the older recipes you have on this channel i know it'll be a hit.
Who else was hungry so typed "lasagna" into youtube?

No, I didn't type on lassgne. I was watching a few Chef John videos and this was the next recipe up. Looks delicious. Note I'm thinking it's been awhile since I've made a lassgne; great fit this time of year.
I have made this lasagna many times from your recipe, with slight variation here and there, and it has always been a hit! Thank you so much.
I’ve watched this multiple times for YEARS- by far a family fav
My husband thought this was the best lasagne I have made him it decades! Thank you to Chef John💜😁
Ya’ll. Chef John is amazing and I followed his recipe to a T. - but as a southern cook, I had to add a few things. Please don’t take this wrong because Chef John is the BOMB! 💣
But I added shredded carrots, chopped fresh baby spinach and cut up SUN-DRIED TOMATOES to the ricotta mixture! A splash of red wine to the meat mixture… it was INCREDIBLE!!! Best lasagna of my 57-year-old life! 😂
I usually just watch the videos but yesterday I actually made this for my family and my mom told me it’s the best lasagna she’s ever had
It is my yearly tradition to watch this video and enjoy watching Chef John cook this 1 portion Lasagna.
I make your recipe all the time hands down. Nobody else in family wants any other lasagna. Thanks my guy.
I REALLY appreciate this recipe!!! Basically, because he combined the cheese! I have never added egg and I can only imagine it will hold together better. I happen to be ready *now to make this. I have ALL of the ingredients and I am thrilled to have stumbled onto this. My husband will be delighted and II will make a second one for my adult son to thank him for all he does for me. THANK YOU SO SO MUCH!
Hi 👋🏻 there happy Halloween 🎃 🎉how are you doing today hope you’re having a wonderful day
12 portions? i think i see only one
Tan Zhen Ming as long as you don't cut it
I agree. That’s usually called my portion around Christmas!
The best lasagna I watched here on youtube. The way you cooked and sliced it. It was perfect.
It doesn't matter relax!!! Love when he said that been making this lasagna over a year now.
Watching you make this brought back many memories of my mother making her homemade lasagna and your recipies are nearly identical (with a few small tweaks) almost brought a tear to my eyes. Thank yoh man 🤙🏼🤙🏼🤙🏼.
For the first time ever in my life I m Confident to give it a try and I know I m not gonna throw it out. Thanks
They loved it! Thank you, Chef John. You taught me how to cook! I show your channel to every foodie I know! I even got my mom hooked on your recipes!

Best lasagna ever 🙌🏼 I’ve gotten so many compliments! So yummy 🤩
A friend and I actually made this and I was so happy. Thank you Chef John for all these wonderful recipes!
Well today is Thanksgiving and I come back to this video every year for the past 3yrs to make sure I don't miss a step. Happy Thanksgiving ❤
Chef John does it again! This dish is a home-run out of the park. 🙌👍👏👏👏
Happy Tenth Anniversary, Christmas Lasagna! Here to make this awesome lasagna for Christmas this year! What a way to celebrate 10 years of Italian Holiday Cheer! Thank you, Chef John! MERRY CHRISTMAS!
This is the best lasagna video ever. And by the way, you're a very good teacher with a nice voice.
No now it b lasagna
So far the best lasagna recipe I have ever used. My husband loved it a lot. Thanks a bunch🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 Love from Saudi
Whenever I'm looking for a recipe or just ideas I come to Chef John's page. Has the best recipes and the best presentation and instructions. Speaks clearly and concisely, with just the right amount of humor...👍🏻👍🏻
He sounds like Garfield from the old cartoon omg lol
mjmoore87 It's also funny bc he's making lasagna
Dwight K. Schrute 🤣🤣🤣🙃
I love your style in cooking.
mjmoore87 so...bill Murray
Bill Murray voiced him in the movie the cartoon was a completely different person
I made this for my family today for Christmas Eve. They loved it! Thank you, Chef John. You taught me how to cook! I show your channel to every foodie I know! I Rven got my mom hooked on your recipes! Have a merry Christmas!
Chef John, you are incredible. Made this for my family, tonight's the first time we'd all been in our family home together for years and I surprised everyone by making this. Clean plates and praises all round 👌
Nice!!!
Seriously, you are a genius! I have never seen a better lasagna recipe in my life that is so easy to follow! Are you real???? Thank you so much!
I decided to try out this recipe a few weeks ago because it was one of the few recipes that I found that uses store bought sauce and it was my first time ever making lasagna..... and man oh man it came out perfect! It was definitely a crowd pleaser at the dinner table and everything was really easy to follow. This is honestly a fool proof method for newbies cooks like myself. Thank you Chef John! :)
This is my go-to recipe every time the hubby wants lasagna! LOVE it!
This was my go to recipe as well, however saw an episode of America's Test Kitchen and they used pepperoni in place of the sausage. Put in a food processor at 6 oz pack and pulse several times. Add to the hamburger and brown in a skillet as you normally would. WOWzers it is amazingly good, no more sausage for me.

Hi 👋🏻 there happy Halloween 🎃 🎉how are you doing today hope you’re having a wonderful day
LOVE the fact you voice your recipe get right to it, thanks I do not need a song and dance when I'm looking for a recipe Making this for family this week.
I made this dish on April 2, 2022. It took me 2 days to make it. But I divided the lasagna into servings and froze some of them, so that now I don't have to cook every night or survive on canned or commercially prepared frozen food. Thank you. :)
This recipe turned out great for me. Thank you, Chef John!
You are an awesome narrator! Keep up the good work! Made a bunch of your recipes. Cheers!
My other half wasn’t able to be home for Christmas, so tomorrow I’m making him this AMAZING dish…it’s gunna be his 1st time experience. 😂 thank you for helping me get wifed up
Saw this over 3 years ago but it's still my Go-To recipe!
This is my go to recipe, my family loves it ! Best lasagna I've ever had hands down! Thank you for sharing!
Probably the best lasagna I’ve ever had. Never made lasagne before. I maybe should have added more liquid to the sauce as it was a tad dry in the end but still absolutely delicious.
@Hello there, how are you doing this blessed day?
I made this for company and they all asked for seconds. I made the sauce two days ahead of time, then decided to add 1/2 lb more cooked ground beef, then simmered the sauce again. One thing that surprised me is that, upon baking, there was no red tomato sauce in sight (despite using 2 jars of pasta sauce). The meat mixture was just brown, and the flavor was intensely meaty-umami. I guess the noodles absorbed all the sauce. In any event, if turned out beautifully. Thank you Chef John!
Plenty of recipe online but I keep on coming back here! Favorite to go recipe, super yummy!
Chef John your lasagna recipe is number one .....made for church and i became popular thanks a million
Marie Cadely lol 😂
This looks so amazing, I'm going to make it tonight!
I made this before and this is something my son wants again. And I’m doing it today. So excited I wish I can make this for breakfast
Just made this. My whole family loved it, thank you!!
I have to stop watching these videos at night - now i wouldn't be able to sleep.
This recipe is one of the best I have seen so far. Even the long years of how these videos made.
Every time I make lasagna, I have to watch this video and every single time everybody loves it!
This is honestly one of the best things ever, hands down.
Stick toothpicks in the unbaked lasagna - then cover the dish with foil before baking. The toothpicks prevent the foil from falling onto the cheese! Genius (wasn't my idea)!
I just cooked my lasagna following ur video n it came out sooo meaty cheezy delicious. Thanks for sharing this video
Jeanina Ahmed thank you!
BRILLIANT!!!! Out of at least 100 this one hit the spot and the guy is very encouraging and nice to listen to!!! thanks a lot!!!
started this same lasagna last year for holiday dinner with friends and family, and they all raved about it. I am making it again this year!
I’ve been making this guys lasagna recipe for yearsssss and it’s always a hit !! Thanks man!
Why is he so calm? I'm more like, "OMFG THERE IS A BROKEN NOODLE MY MOTHER IN LAW WILL NOTICE MY LIFE IS OVER"
You're the Don Corleone of your lasagne, with or without mascarpone.
Looks like your mother in law is an idiot.
He said two keys to a great lasagna is a fantastic meat sauce and a great cheese filling who cares if the noodles broken either way lasagna is delicious
Worst mother in law lol
lynnbelford217 Real lasagna are NOT filled with cheese. Come to Italy and try the real thing!
Happy holidays, John. We make this every Christmas and it’s always a winner. Thank you!
Damn, i keep watching these vids. All of a sudden all these foods are within reach, these recipes are so accessible to everyone.
This is lovely! Thank you so much for this recipe. I intend to try a few more of yours because this really worked for me. I never knew such an apparently substantial meal could be sooooo melt-in-the-mouth!! Just lovely!
You are clever, hilarious and very generous with your recipes and tips. Thank you very much from over here in the UK! 💝 🇬🇧
(I am the United Nations of my elucidation... 😏)
I just made this tonight for dinner and everyone loved it!!!!!! Thank you so much for your wonderful recipes 😎
They are lying to you.
My first stop on search for easy lasagna, I’ll go no further. Thanks so much, I’m sure it will be delish!
Thank you for sharing your lasagna recipe! When I make my lasagna I make your recipe always!! DELICIOUS!!!
Whenever I need salt for a recipe, I just come to this comment section and look for Italians.
😂😂😂😂 oh my life
Alex 😂😂😂😂
LMAOOOO. This is to good
This would be funny if I saw atleast one salty comment. Let alone from an Italian
😂😂😂👍🏾
Made this and my fiance went crazy for this. His words were "I ate like a king" thanks for sharing this recipe. It was so delicious and made me and my love happy :)
How long did it really take to make?
My son who LOVES Food Wishes , just realized this video is older than he is , lol ! Thanks Chef John , Keep on Truckin❗👍
Thank you for the reassurance on “relax!” I know I would be stressing about perfect noodles. Definitely going to try this recipe!!!
You make cooking seem easy,love it! Gonna try this :)
im watching this while fasting......cant wait till i make it
Haha me too. It is giving me ideas for iftar.
Fasting day is over. Now you can watch everyday.
This is my favorite channel to inspire me to cook during the quarantine. Thank you.
You always make it look so easy. I’m going to try this because I love how you got perfect squares.
*Amounts for a 20x20 cm pan:*
Sauce:
225 gr sausage
340 gr meat
1,4 l tomato sauce (with large tomato pieces)
4 garlic cloves
basil
Filling:
1 egg
450 gr ricotta
115 gr mozzarella
50 gr parmigiano
freshly chopped parsley
Top:
115 gr mozzarella
30 gr parmigiano
Oven at 190ºC
Split filling in two, the listed amount of sauce yields a bit more than necessary, so you don't have to worry about dividing it in four. Simply scoop as much as you need for each layer and use the rest for another recipe.
From bottom to top:
Sauce
Pasta - Filling - Sauce
Pasta - Filling - Sauce
Pasta - Sauce, mozzarella, parmigiano
Cover with foil and bake 40 minutes.
Remove foil and bake another 30 minutes.
Don't underestimate the time it take to assemble this, it looks simple in the video but it takes about half an hour to spread everything evenly.
And if you don't have a freakishly large, and especially high, lasagna pan, create one from a disposable aluminum tray like this:
photos.app.goo.gl/4zPVXxQmJ2CEkXVB9
and forget about sacrificing the first portion, simply cut one side of the pan and slide a spatula underneath.
I was surprised of how well this lasagna keeps its structure and the clean cuts it allows..
If ur here 10 years later....... Ur not a legend, ur just hungry :D
😂😂
🤣
This guy really does know good food. 12 portions! It’s lasagna and this is a good one. That’s really just ONE big portion for me. Yum!!!
Made it for Christmas, it was delicious. Chef John, your recipes have never failed me.
Just wanted to say that this lasagna was amazing. I cooked it last weekend and used your tomato sauce recipe as well. It came out amazing. I'm in the police academy right now and I brought some extra in for my buddies and one was quoted as saying "I hate to say this, but that lasagna was better than my mothers". I also overheard two other recruits talking about how good it was in the locker room. Figured you'd appreciate the praise. It was so delicious.
