METHOD
Preheat oven to 180 degrees Celsius.
If
you have a food processor either process or grate your mushrooms,
carrots and zucchini to save time. If cutting by hand, dice small.
In a large non stick fry pan over medium high heat cook beef until browned. Set aside.
Add
onion to pan and cook for few minutes until translucent. Add garlic
and cook for a further minute. Add carrots, zucchini and mushrooms and
cook for about 10 minutes until liquid that comes out of from the
vegetables reduces. Add back mince along with tomato paste, stock, red
wine and tomato soup and mixed herbs. Stir to combine. Bring to boil
then reduce to a simmer and cook for 15 minutes. Season with salt and
pepper to taste. (At this point I make the white sauce).
White
sauce: In a small saucepan over low heat melt margarine. Add flour and
whisk together. Cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly. Gradually add
milk in small amounts until you have a smooth sauce. Add in 50g cheese
and stir until melted.
In a large rectangular
casserole dish add about a 1/4 of the meat sauce, then a layer with
lasagne sheets, then a 1/4 of the white sauce. Repeating until lasagne
sheets are gone and top with last 1/4 of white sauce. Sprinkle
remaining cheese over top. Cover dish with baking paper and foil and
bake in oven for 45 minutes. Remove paper and foil and bake for further
15 minutes or until top begins to brown. Remove from oven and let cool
for 5 minutes before serving.
