Ingredients
- 9oz lasagne pasta sheets(Use fresh or dried, prepare according to package instructions if dried.)
- 18oz mixed mushrooms(Such as cremini, shiitake, and oyster; sliced.)
- 2 tbsp truffle oil(Good quality white or black truffle oil.)
- 25 3/8 fl oz béchamel sauce(Homemade or good quality store-bought. Infused with truffle oil.)
- 7oz mozzarella cheese(Shredded.)
- 4oz parmesan cheese(Freshly grated.)
- 2 pcs garlic(Minced.)
- 1oz butter
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 2 tbsp fresh parsley(Chopped, for garnish.)
- salt(To taste.)
- black pepper(Freshly ground, to taste.)
Instructions
Prepare Mushrooms
- Heat olive oil and butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
- Add the sliced mixed mushrooms to the skillet. Cook, stirring occasionally, until they release their liquid and start to brown, about 8-10 minutes.
- Season the mushrooms with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Stir in 1 tbsp of truffle oil.
- Remove from heat and set aside.
Assemble Lasagne
- Preheat your oven to 190°C (375°F). Lightly grease a baking dish (approximately 20x30 cm).
- Spread a thin layer of béchamel sauce on the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
- Arrange a layer of lasagne pasta sheets over the béchamel. If using dried, ensure they are properly cooked or have soaked as per package instructions.
- Spread half of the sautéed mushroom mixture evenly over the pasta sheets.
- Pour some béchamel sauce over the mushrooms, enough to lightly cover them.
- Sprinkle a generous amount of grated Parmesan cheese and some mozzarella cheese.
- Repeat the layers: pasta sheets, remaining mushroom mixture, béchamel sauce, Parmesan, and mozzarella.
- Finish with a final layer of pasta sheets, cover completely with the remaining béchamel sauce, and top generously with mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses.
- Drizzle the remaining 1 tbsp of truffle oil over the top layer of cheese.
Bake Lasagne
- Cover the baking dish loosely with aluminum foil.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes.
- Remove the foil and continue baking for another 15-20 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and bubbly.
- Let the lasagne rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving.

Tips
- Ensure your béchamel is well-seasoned and infused with truffle oil for maximum flavor impact.
- Don't overcook the pasta sheets before assembling if they're fresh, as they will cook more in the oven.
- Garnish with fresh parsley and a final drizzle of truffle oil just before serving for an extra touch of elegance.
