- Peel and wash the onion and carrot. Dice the onion small and grate the carrot. Sauté the onion in a little oil for 3 minutes, then add the ground meat and carrot and keep cooking for another 7–10 minutes — the meat should end up loose and crumbly. Stir in the tomato paste, season with salt, pepper, and Italian herbs, and fry for 5 minutes more.
- Melt the butter in a saucepan over low heat, then whisk in the flour until smooth. Pour in the hot milk in a thin stream, whisking constantly so no lumps form. Season with salt, bring the sauce to a boil, and take it off the heat.
- Layer the lasagna sheets in a baking dish, overlapping them, and alternate with the meat-and-vegetable mixture and the sauce. Build up all the layers this way, spread the remaining sauce over the top, and bake in an oven preheated to 425°F (220°C) for 20–25 minutes.
- Serve the lasagna cut into portions.
- Enjoy!
