Step 1
Cook the Bechamel Sauce: Melt the butter in a pot and add the flour. Mix very well with a whisk until all sticks together. Then add the milk, season well and add the grated cheese. Whisk well until the sauce has thickened.
Step 2
Grease a big gratin dish with the butter. Add a soup ladle of Bolognese sauce and spread it on the bottom of the dish. Do the same with the Bechamel sauce.
Step 3
Cut the pasta sheets into the right size and lay them on top of the sauce. Add some Bolognese sauce and Bechamel sauce. Go on putting layers of pasta and sauce and finish with a layer of Bolognese sauce and Bechamel sauce.
Step 4
Cut the mozzarella into slices and put them on top. Sprinkle the Parmesan and butter over the whole dish as topping.
