To begin with this particular recipe, we must first prepare a few components. You can have lasagne using 23 ingredients and 6 steps. Here is how you cook it.

- Make ready 8 fresh lasagne sheets

- Prepare 40 g butter
- Make ready 40 g plain flour
- Take 500 ml milk
- Make ready 1 bay leaf

Instructions to make Lasagne:
- Heat pan with olive oil and add finely diced carrot, celery and onions. Sweat on a low heat until soft & translucent season with salt and pepper. Turn up the heat and add the mince & break up the meat so you have no clumps of meat - use a wooden spoon or whisk. Cook until meat is brown.
- Once the meat is browned add the red wine and wait until reduced slightly. After a few mins add the milk and cook for 2 minutes (this tenderises the meat and makes the ragu more creamy).
- Finally add the tinned tomato (fill up both empty tins with water and add also), tomato paste, stock pot, sugar, oregano, basil and also a pinch of chilli (optional). Simmer on a low heat for 1 hour & half. This can be done much quicker but it’s worth waiting for!
- For the white sauce add the butter to a pan on low heat to melt. Gradually whisk in the flour to form a smooth roux. First add in a small amount of milk whilst whisking, then add the rest of the milk. Add the bay leaf, nutmeg & pepper (no salt needed as Parmesan is salty). Whisk for around 5-10 minutes until the sauce starts to thicken. Then add the Parmesan cheese.
- Preheat an oven to 200 degrees. In a large lasagne dish, first add a few spoons of the red sauce so it covers the full dish. Pour some of the white sauce across the top. Sprinkle on some of the cheese & the cover with a lasagne sheet. Then repeat. For the top layer make sure it is the white sauce only then the grated cheese. Place into the hot oven for 45 minutes
- To serve let rest for up to an hour. Cut up into slices to serve. This is great the next day also for any left over.
