If you’ve always wanted to learn how to make the original Italian lasagna, there’s nobody who could teach you better than a 91-year-old Italian granny named Maria. The video of her making the most amazing lasagna we’ve ever seen was recently published on Pasta Grannies and we had to share it with you!

Pasta Grannies is a YouTube channel devoted to filming Italian grandmas who make the most delicious pasta in their traditional way. “Welcome to Pasta Grannies! I find and film real Italian grannies – nonne – making delicious, traditional, handmade pasta. And sometimes soups, breads, dolci, rice dishes, that kind of thing, because that is what the Grannies wanted to cook for me,” the channel description reads.

As the video description reads, “Maria and her daughter Paola regularly make lasagna to take away for their customers. Over the years they’ve adapted their recipe and the result is a green lasagna, layered with a pork ragù and béchamel sauce. This is Maria’s second appearance for Pasta Grannies!”

Granny Maria’s pasta recipe is enough for two dishes that are around 25x3cm, which will easily serve the whole family. Don’t count on the leftovers, because this is simply too delicious not to be eaten while fresh! And just look at Maria’s incredible energy – at 91, we can’t believe she still makes food worthy of a very popular cooking channel. In fact, this video already has over 3 million views!
