Lasagna Alla Bolognese
Lasagna is another of the best known Italian dishes in the world (along with pizza!). It's been around since the Middle Ages and is traditionally linked to the city of Naples, though there are countless variations across Italy. One of the best is lasagna alla bolognese, which eschews the traditional ricotta/mozzarella combo for a hearty, slow-cooked meat sauce, béchamel, a bit of parmesan and layers of fresh pasta. It's traditionally served as a first-course dish, if you can believe that!
