- Prepare Béchamel: Place the butter in a pot and add the flour. Heat, stirring constantly, until flour is lightly browned but not completely golden. Pour in the milk, stirring constantly, and season with nutmeg and pepper. Cook until the sauce becomes thick. Put aside.
- Preheat the oven to 180 degrees C.

- Grease an ovenproof dish with butter. Place a layer of lasagne noodles on the bottom of the dish. Put a layer of meat sauce on it and pour béchamel sauce over it. Sprinkle it with a bit of Parmesan. Put the pasta on top of the cheese and repeat all the layers until you use up all the ingredients. There should be a layer of parmesan cheese on top.
- Bake the lasagna for 45 minutes. Enjoy!
