Butter- 100 gms Cinnamon powder- 1 tbsp.
Tomato Sauce Salt- as required
Ground Beef- 500 gms Macaroni pasta- 1 packet
Spices- As per your flavor
Preparation:

• Make the meat filling - cook ground beef or lamb with spices, onions, garlic,
and tomato sauce.
• Cook pasta, slightly less than the package says to cook it. Once assembled
this will get baked for about an hour, and you don’t want your pasta to be
mushy by the time it’s done.
• To make bechamel sauce, melt butter in a large pot, and add flour,
continuously whisking until it turns golden and develops a nutty aroma. At
that point begin adding milk, bit by bit, whisking after each addition. Once
all the milk is added, season the bechamel sauce and bring to a boil and
turn off the heat. Then, add a couple of beaten eggs to this mixture to help
hold together when it is cut at the end.
• Layer the dish - put some of the bechamel sauce and then put layer of half
the pasta into baking dish. Spread half the pasta into baking dish , Add the
meat layer, add the rest of the pasta , cover with
remaining bechamel sauce.
• Bake for about 45 minutes
