Procedure Lasagna Strips
- Lasagna strips should be cooked according to instructions on the box (Same as you cook your pasta).
- After removing them from water place them on a greased tray and drizzle some oil on them so that they don’t stick to each other.
Procedure for Pizzata (pizza sauce)
- Heat olive oil in a pan put lots of garlic (don’t burn), add onions.
- Saute till it becomes soft and turns golden.
- Now put some chilly flakes or chilly powder and then the blanched tomatoes and basil leaves.
- Stir well.
- Cook for 15 mins season with salt and pepper.
Procedure for White Sauce
- Take butter in a sauce pan, drizzle few drops of vegetable oil. (The oil will prevent the butter from burning).
- Add a bay leaf, cloves and black pepper; stir well following onions.
- Saute onions well till it softens or gets translucent, then add the flour (maida).
- Stir the flour over a low flame. If it changes colour on high flame it will not serve the purpose to avoid lumps later.
- When you see the colour change slowly add milk and keep stirring. You can use egg beater.
- Cook continuously stirring on a low flame till you get a thick sauce.
- In the end finish it up with salt and pepper.
- Keep aside for cooling.
