If you're looking for a delicious homemade lasagna recipe, you've come to the right place. This recipe includes all the ingredients and step-by-step instructions you need to create a perfect lasagna that will impress your family and friends.

Ingredients

• Pasta Lasagna Sheets
• 1 kg mince meat
• 1 cup parmesan cheese
• 1 onion
• 1 cup tomato & basil pasta sauce
• 4 cups Mozzarella Cheese
• 1 tin diced tomatoes
• 1/4 cup tomato sauce
• 1 tsp curry powder
• 1 tsp garlic paste
• 2 cups milk
• 1/4 cup flour
• 2 tbsp butter
• 3 tbsp cooking oil

Directions

Cooking the Meat Sauce

Heat the cooking oil in a pan and add the onion. Sauté until soft. Add curry powder and garlic paste and sauté further until golden brown. Add the mince meat and cook until brown. Add diced tomatoes, pasta sauce, and tomato sauce. Cover and cook until well done. Add salt to taste.

Preparing the Lasagna Sheets

Cook the lasagna sheets as per package instructions. (I used about 12 sheets)

Making the White Sauce

Melt butter in a pan. Stir in the flour and gradually add milk, stirring continuously until the sauce is thick and shiny before adding more milk. Add in parmesan cheese and keep stirring until it has completely melted. You can add salt and pepper to taste. Once smooth, glossy, and thick, it is ready.

Assembling the Lasagna

Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius. In a baking dish, pour some meat sauce and spread it over the dish. Layer with lasagna sheets, add more meat sauce, then pour some white sauce and sprinkle mozzarella cheese. Repeat this process until the dish is full. Cover with foil and place in the oven for about 30 minutes until the sheets are tender and the lasagna bubbles. Uncover and grill for a few minutes until the cheese on top is a little brown. Garnish with spring onions and enjoy!
