Lasagne

A real family favourite this one and a meal we eat a lot at home but due to the limited cooking facilities onboard Naughty-Cal not one we can have afloat.

For this recipe you will require:
A packet on mince (any variety will make this dish)
An onion
A bell pepper
A courgette
Mushrooms
Tomato passatta
Garlic puree
Cheese sauce
Fresh lasagne
Grated Cheese
Herbs


To start preheat the oven to 220 degrees. Then finely chop the onion, pepper, courgette and mushrooms. In a little oil fry the mince, onion, pepper, courgette and mushrooms until the mince is browned and the vegetables starting to soften, then add the passatta and a squirt of garlic puree. Simmer the mixture for about 15 to 20 minutes.

Whilst the lasagne filling is simmering take an oven proof dish and spread half of your cheese sauce on the bottom of the dish, followed by a layer of fresh lasagne sheet. When the filling is cooked and nicely reduced spread half the mixture in the dish followed by a layer of pasta. Repeat again then add a final layer of pasta. Spread the remaining cheese sauce on top, sprinkle with grated cheese and a handful of chopped herbs. Place the dish in the preheated oven and cook for 20 minutes or until the cheese is golden brown and bubbling.

Serve with fresh seasonal salad and dressing and there you have it. A simple home cooked lasagne that all of the family will enjoy. Easy to prepare, easy to cook and super tasty. Enjoy.
