Step By Step Guide: How To Prepare Lasagne
A step by Step guide to help you prepare Lasagne in the comfort of your kitchen. This is a basic guide with added filling options(shared from Foodeva Marsay Website), that I opt to use.
Instructions
- Prepare your Meat filling (or a vegetarian option)
- Prepare Extra White Sauce (with about 1 litre milk, for a large oven casserole)
- Spray large casserole with non stick spray
- Have your Store bought lasagne sheets ready, No Need to pre-boil them.
- Begin Layering... Start with a spoon or 2 of white sauce, spread across casserole.
- Layer the lasagne sheets across the casserole, on top of white sauce.
- Now spread on your filling of choice
- Drizzle on more white sauce
- Follow by another layer of Lasagne sheets
- Keep repeating steps, until you reach 3/4 way up casserole
- Always end with a layer of White Sauce
- At this stage, Keep the casserole in refrigerator for 30 minutes, then pre-heat oven to moderate.
- Bake Lasagne for 30-40 minutes
- Take care, It will bubble as it cooks through. (*tip, Add the casserole dish on top of a tray covered with foil, for easier cleaning if need be.*)
- Top Lasagne with Grated cheese, either Cheddar/Gouda or Mozzarella.
- When cheese is melted and golden in colour, Remove Lasagne from oven, and allow to rest for 10-15 minutes, before serving.
- Serve with a side of salad and /or garlic bread.

Additional Notes by Foodeva Marsay
~ Other Filling options for Lasagne:
* Mince (curry format or a little saucy),
* Roasted vegetables also makes a great vegetarian option, as well as Spinach and Feta.
~ Together with the meat filling, you can also layer some roasted vegetables as well.
~ You may use a tomato based sauce instead of White sauce.
~ For a healthier version, use Slices of eggplants OR slices of Baby Marrow/Courgettes.
~ There is no need to pre-boil Lasagne sheets, as it absorbs moisture whilst it rests before baking, and on the 2nd rest after baking. It will soften.
~ To make Individual rolled up servings of Lasagne, then Pre-boil the Lasagne sheets Before using. For this, no need to rest before baking.
