Method
- Heat the oil in a pan and cook the ground beef for about 10 minutes crumbling with the back of a spoon, until it's browned. Add the onions and garlic and cook for another 5 minutes. Add the tomatoes and 1/2 cup of stock, bring to a boil, and simmer for about 10 minutes. Add the oregano, cinnamon, and sugar and season to taste.
- For the bechamel sauce, melt the butter in a saucepan. Add flour and cook while stirring for 2-3 minutes. Pour in the milk and 1 cup of stock, bring to a boil, and simmer for about 5 mins, while stirring constantly.
- Preheat the oven to 400°F. Place alternating layers of bechamel sauce, meat sauce, and potato slices in a greased casserole dish. Finish with a layer of bechamel sauce sprinkled with shredded mozzarella. Bake for about 1 hour.
