Ingredients

Meat Sauce

  • 50 ml Olive Oil
  • 3 Onions diced
  • 1 Garlic Bulb minced
  • 1.5 kg Lamb Mince
  • 1 kg Passata
  • 1 L Water
  • 1 tbsp Salt
  • 1 tbsp Chilli Powder
  • 1 tbsp Turmeric Powder
  • 1 tbsp Mixed Herbs

White Sauce

  • 150 g Butter
  • 150 g Plain Flour
  • 1.5 L Milk
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • ½ tsp Black Pepper

Lasagne Layers

  • Lasagne Sheets
  • Fresh Mozzarella
  • Parmesan Cheese
  • Mozzarella

Instructions

  • In a large pot heat up the oil on medium heat until hot then add the finely diced onions and cook for 3-4 minutes until softened
  • Add the minced garlic and cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant
  • Add the lamb mince and cook for 6-8 minutes until the mince begins to brown, ensuring that you use the spoon to break down any large chunks of minced meat
  • Add the salt, chilli powder, turmeric powder and mixed herbs then cook the spices for 3-4 minutes
  • Add the passata and water then bring the pot to a boil before reducing the heat and letting it simmer
  • Allow to simmer for at least 30 minutes, preferable longer as this simmering helps the flavour to develop
  • As the meat sauce is cooking prepare the white sauce by adding the whole milk into a saucepan and bring it to a gentle boil
  • In another pan melt the butter completely on low heat before adding the plain flour and cooking for 3-4 minutes whilst stirring continuously until a thick paste forms – this is called a roux
  • Add the hot milk gradually to the roux, stirring continuously, and cook for 5-7 minutes on medium heat until the sauce has thickened
  • Add the salt and pepper and cook for 1-2 minutes then set aside
  • Preheat the oven to 190°C/375°F/gas mark 5
  • Prepare your lasagne dish by brushing on some olive oil on the side and bottom of the dish to prevent any sticking then add a thin layer of meat sauce at the bottom before topping with the lasagne sheets
  • add another layer of meat sauce and top with a sprinkle of parmesan cheese and slices of the fresh mozzarella and then a layer of lasagne sheets then repeat this once again
  • For the final layer instead of adding the lasagne sheets add the grated mozzarella cheese
  • Cover the dish with a layer of foil (see note 1) then bake in the oven for 60 minutes before taking the foil off and broiling for 5 minutes to allow the cheese to brown (see note 2)
  • Allow the lasagne to rest for at least 15 minutes before cutting into it – THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT
  • Serve with homemade garlic bread and enjoy!

Notes

Note 1 – Coat the bottom of the foil with a generous amount of oil to prevent it from sticking to the top of the cheese
Note 2 – If your oven doesn’t have a broil function then just increase the oven to the highest heat setting it goes to then allow it the cheese to brown like that
