After making Amatriciana the authentic way a bunch, one day I decided to do a little freestyle. This dish is by far one of the best things
I’ve ever eaten. It isn’t truly authentic I know, which may get some people upset, but this recipe has the same important qualities as the original. So here we go:
-cook guanciale in pan to render fat, take out guanciale, leave the fat in pan.
-add a little bit of chopped onion (I know, I know)
-splash of white wine 🤫
-add San Marzano tomatoes to pan
-add guanciale back into pan
-simmer sauce for 25 min
-make béchamel (butter, flour, whole milk, nutmeg, black pepper, little salt) set aside.
Assemble in baking dish
-red sauce
-lasagne
-red sauce
-béchamel
-pecorino cheese
-scamorza cheese (some really good stuff)
-lasagne
Repeat til everything is gone 🙂
I’m sorry for not giving specific measurements, I pretty much eyeball everything. Also forgot to take a pic of the entire thing the baking dish.

Very well made… 8+
Don’t worry about authenticity: there are a dozens variations on lasagna and you have made a variation like an Italian would do…
you made one of my favorite foods with one of my favorite sauces, I would love to eat it 🤤
I’m from Italy, and I would eat the FUCK outta that.
