procedure :

First prepare the sauce (even the day before)
in a large pot add olive oil, chopped onion and let it fry , 
join now sausages browning fading little by little with the white wine, 
(here you can add the tomato paste ) Now pour the tomato sauce go up (not much) 
and let cook about half an hour on low heat , 
stirring occasionally until the sauce making full-bodied dry .

Now prepare the meatballs
bathe wring out the bread and put in a bowl with an egg , minced meat, parsley and salt 
if you like cheese.
Knead everything together and we form small patties that after we fry and keep aside.

Once cooked sausages pull out of the sauce and cut them into slices


We put water on the fire
Slice the mozzarella into strips , diluted with a little ricotta sauce 
and pasta water to create a full-bodied cream .
At this point, everything should be ready to bake the lasagna in salted water 
(I recommend a low, wide pan ) cook them , drain and pour on a damp cloth trying to spread them
 wide . ( in the cooking water , pour a tablespoon of olive oil so they do not attack each other) .

Now take a baking dish , sprinkle the bottom with the sauce , and then do a first layer of pasta,
then pour the sauce , a side of meatballs, sausages into slices and mozzarella , 
then the Parmesan cheese .
Cover with another layer of dough and keep it up to finish the ingredients. 
Finish with the "roof" made of pasta tomato and parmesan cheese.

Put into the oven nice hot 180-200 ° up to make a nice crust on it.
