Critical Success Points

  • Sweating the sofrito for at least 30 minutes to develop sweetness
  • Browning the meat until crispy edges form
  • Simmering the ragu for 1½ hours for depth of flavor
  • Making a lump‑free béchamel
  • Baking uncovered for the final 5 minutes to achieve a golden crust

Safety Warnings

  • Handle hot oil and pan handles with oven mitts to avoid burns
  • Be careful when removing hot foil from the oven – steam can cause scalds
  • Use a sharp knife safely when chopping vegetables
