Welcome to Kitcheninthecity! Urban kitchen, means easy good cooking. Urban life here in Milan is quite tough: work+ 2 hungry teenagers+one great husband. Cooking is passion, eating with family and fiends is sharing love. I’ll just ask you to be comprehensive to my “english” mistakes…
Let’s start with a Lasagna! No meat ragù, just flavoury Bufala mozzarella (but f you have normal mozzarella it works!) and fresh cherry tomatoes. Basil bechamel. Tasty, quick, perfect for dinners, picnic, Sunday brunches. Would you ask more? You don’t need to spend hours in the kitchen…just follow few step and you’ll get a delicious green bechamel + great lasagna. Prepare it the day before, most of the work is the bechamel. Here they say it tastes like pizza, what do you think?
Add basil leaves, pinch of salt and pepper and work it with a food processor
Tomatoes!
In a pan cook washed and cut in half tomatoes with garlic and oil, for 7 minutes
Add salt and pepper as you like, keep apart
Lasagna!
To assemble, spread 3 spoons of the bechamel in the bottom of rectangular baking dish.
Arrange 3 lasagna noodles lengthwise over the bechamel
Top with mozzarella cheese slices and cherry tomatoes
Repeat layers, and top with remaining mozzarella Cherry tomatoes.
Cover with foil and bake for 20 min.
Remove foil, and bake an additional 5 minutes.
Cool for 15 minutes before serving.

I bet the smell fills your whole house! That´s a plus about having a small kitchen, I suppose.
Hi Emmy and thank you for your comment! It’s my first on the Recipe Room!
Yes it smells good feeling….small or big the size of a kitchen depends on the chef! My kitchen at home is small, I usually work in between the sink and the fire, 1 meter of black stone is enough!
Come back when you have tried my lasagna!
