If using fresh pasta, just sprinkle with a few drops of water before
baking.
Ladle several spoonfuls of tomato sauce in the bottom of a lasagna
pan then top with 1/4 of pasta, let the sheets rise up the sides of
the pan. Top with half the bechamel sauce & half the peas. Add
another layer of pasta, another layer of tomato sauce & top with a
third layer of pasta. Add the remaining bechamel sauce & peas. Top
with the rest of the tomato sauce. Drizzle with olive oil & sprinkle

* If using fresh peas, blanch before adding them to the lasagna
layers.
