TOTAL TIME:

Serves 6 – 8 people
You will need a large shallow casserole or oven proof pan, roughly 32cm in diameter
Ingredients
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 onion, finely chopped
1 leek, washed, trimmed and finely chopped
2 carrots, finely diced
2 garlic cloves, crushed
750g lean steak mince
500ml tomato passata
60g tomato paste
1 pinch chilli flakes
250ml beef stock
400g fresh lasagne sheets, cut in half diagonally
Freshly milled salt and pepper
For the cheese sauce:
50g Dromona butter
50g plain flour
500ml milk
200g Dromona grated mature cheddar
Made for sharing:
Serve with some crunchy coleslaw and enjoy dipping your crusty bread into the rich, meaty sauce. Take a picture of your masterpiece before the spoons start to dig in, so you can share your #GreatFoodMoments
How It’s Done:
Heat olive oil in a large casserole over medium-high heat and fry the onion, leeks and carrots for 5 minutes until soft, then add garlic and stir for 1 minute. Stir in steak mince, breaking up with a wooden spoon and cook for 5 minutes until brown.
Stir in passata, tomato paste, chilli flakes and stock. Bring to a boil, then lower the temperature and simmer for 5 minutes.
For the cheese sauce:
Melt butter in a saucepan, then add flour, stirring continuously until a paste forms – this is called a roux. Gradually whisk milk to the roux, whisking until smooth. Cook for 5 minutes, continuing to stir until the sauce has thickened, then stir in half of the cheese.
To assemble:
Preheat an oven to 180oC / 160oC (Fan) / Gas mark 4.
Remove two thirds of the meat sauce from the casserole to a large bowl.
Spread the remaining third over the base of the casserole and arrange a layer of fresh lasagne sheets on top. Pour over one third of the cheese sauce. Repeat twice, finishing with cheese sauce and sprinkle with remaining grated cheddar. Bake in a hot oven for 35 minutes until golden.
Serve with crisp salad and crusty bread
