Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 180C.
2. Sautee onion, garlic, and herbs in the oil on medium heat.
3. Once onion starts to go translucent, turn heat to high and add mince.
4. Brown the mince until completely cooked through, ensuring there are no lumps.
5. Add passata and stir thoroughly.
6. Turn back down to a medium heat for sauce to simmer and reduce for around 10-15 minutes.
7. Make the white sauce by placing the ricotta, Parmesan and milk to a bowl. You may not need all the milk. Mix thoroughly. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
8. Once your meat sauce has thickened remove from heat and assemble your lasagne in a large baking dish.
9. In an oven proof dish place a thin layer of meat to cover the bottom, then cover with 1 layer of Mountain Bread.
10. Next add a thin layer of sauce followed by another Mountain Bread.
11. Repeat this step making your final layer the white sauce.
12. Sprinkle the top layer with your grated tasty cheese. Bake in the oven uncovered for 40 minutes or until the cheese on top starts to brown and crisp.
13. Slice into 8 pieces and serve with steamed veggies or salad.
