Lasagne a la Francaise

ADAPTED From: From Julia Child's Kitchen
Amended to lower potassium.

Ingredients:
Noodles
10-12 curly lasagne (about 2 x 12 inches)
8-10 qt of boiling water
1 1/2 tsp salt per quart of water
2 tb EVOO

Filling
2 cups cooked chopped green vegetables
1 cup cooked chopped other vegetables (mostly for color!)
1 cup grated cheese of choice (we used a parmesian mix)
1 cup ricotta cheese
2 cups cooked and diced chicken

White Sauce (makes about 4 cups)
1/2 cup minced onions
6 Tb butter
1/2 cup flour
3 cups chicken broth
Salt and Pepper to taste

Cooking & Baking
Boiling the Lasagne
Drop lasagne into boiling water. Add salt, EVOO.
Boil slowly, uncovered for 13-15 minutes until "al dente"
Drain immediately.
Rince rapidly in cold water.
Hang piece by piece over edge of colander to dry. (keeps them from sticking to each other)

White Sauce
Blend onions with butter over moderate heat.
When butter is bubbling, blend in vlour and cook, stirring with a wooden spoon for about 2 minutes, without browning the sauce.
Remove from heat and whisk.
Sauce should be thick enough to coat a spoon fairly heavily.
Boil for 4-5 minutes, stirring frequently. Add salt and pepper to taste.
(if not using immediately, keep at a simmer, stirring to keep from burning)

Assembling Lasagne
Line bottom of oiled baking dish with layer of lasagne.
Spread 2-3 spoonfuls of white sauce over lasagne.
