Construct the lasagne
- Construct your lasagne in a lasagne dish by creating layers of meat sauce, lasagne sheets and cheese sauce (in that order).
- Bake at 160°C (320°F) fan oven, 180°C (360°F) normal oven for 30-35 minutes.
- Sprinkle on some grated cheese and the sliced peppers. Place under a hot grill for 5 minutes to melt the cheese.
- Allow the lasagne to sit for 10 minutes before serving.
Titli's Tips
Most hard or semi-hard cheeses will work in the recipe. Strong cheddars and jack cheeses work particularly well.
For an added twist use corn tortillas or tortilla chips instead of lasagne sheets.
To make a vegetarian version replace the meat with the same quantity of soaked lentils
