Layer up with these unbeatable lasagne recipes
There’s a lot to love about lasagne: layers of silky pasta, creamy besciamella (also known as béchamel), warming ragù and plenty of oozy cheese — whether it’s parmesan or mozzarella.
A true lasagne should have a minimum of three layers of lasagne sheets. But for homemade versions, we’re able to build lasagne and filling higher to create a layered masterpiece.
If you’re looking for a classic lasagne recipe, turn to Matt Breen’s Mum’s lasagne, filled with a meat sauce of minced beef and pork, herbs, and a tomato sauce, plus a mornay sauce made with cheddar cheese, milk and butter. Or give Julia Busuttil Nishimura’s meat-free lasagne alla Portofino a try if you’re after a hearty vegetarian lasagne. Whatever your choice, these lasagne recipes deliver the ultimate cooler-weather comfort. Just be sure to top with extra cheese.
