3 tablespoons all-purpose flour

Hướng dẫn

Step 1

Heat the oven to 375°F. Bring a large pot of heavily salted water to a boil over medium-high heat.

Step 2

Add 1 pound dried spaghetti to the boiling water and cook according to package directions for 1 minute less than al dente. Meanwhile, make the sauce.

Step 3

Melt 2 tablespoons unsalted butter in a Dutch oven or high-sided skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 pound raw Italian sausage and cook, breaking it up into small pieces with a wooden spoon, until cooked through and no longer pink, 5 to 7 minutes.

Step 4

Stir in 1 diced medium yellow onion, 1 cup julienne cut sun-dried tomatoes, 3 minced garlic cloves, 1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt, 1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is softened, about 4 minutes.

Step 5

Sprinkle 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour over the sausage mixture. Cook, stirring constantly, for 1 minute to cook the floury taste out. Slowly whisk in 4 cups whole milk. Bring to a boil, whisking occasionally. Reduce the heat to maintain a simmer and cook, whisking occasionally, until the sauce is slightly thickened, about 5 minutes. Stir in 5 ounces baby spinach, a handful at a time, until just wilted.

Step 6

When the spaghetti is ready, drain, then return to the pot. Add the sauce and toss until combined. Taste and season with more kosher salt if needed. Transfer to a 9x9-inch square (at least 2 inches high) or 9x13-inch baking dish and arrange into an even layer. Sprinkle evenly with 3 ounces shredded mozzarella cheese.

Step 7

Bake until the edges are bubbling and the cheese is melted, 18 to 20 minutes. Let cool for 5 minutes. Garnish with fresh parsley leaves if using before cutting into pieces like a lasagna and serving.
