Lasagna with Ham and Cheese

Fresh lasagna sheets: Pasta gives structure and soaks up all the delicious sauce Choose fresh sheets for the best texture or use dry and boil until flexible
Ham: Brings savory depth Use thinly sliced high quality ham from your deli counter or leftover baked ham
Onion: Adds sweet aromatic base to the sauce Stick to yellow or white onion for smooth flavor
Butter: Richness that is essential for the roux Choose unsalted for better control over flavor
Flour: Thickens the sauce Use all purpose and sift for a lump free result
Semi skimmed milk: Keeps the Mornay sauce creamy without feeling heavy Whole milk works as a substitute for extra richness
