- Lasagne:
- 1 tsp vegetable oil
- garlic (1x clove), halved
- 1 onion (small), finely chopped
- ½ red pepper, finely chopped
- ½ courgette, finely chopped
- 4 mushrooms, finely chopped
- 500g lean beef mince
- 1 beef stock cube
- 1 tsp oregano, dried
- 400g tomatoes (1x tin), chopped
- 200g tomato pasta sauce (1x jar)
- 8 lasagne sheets
- White sauce:
- 25g butter
- 25g flour
- 250ml milk
- ¼ tsp English mustard
- 110g cheddar cheese, grated
STEP 1
Preheat the slow cooker on high and grease with the vegetable oil. Rub the garlic clove around the basin, then chop and add to the basin.
STEP 2
In a separate bowl, mix together the mince, chopped onion, pepper, courgette and mushrooms, sprinkle over the stock cube and herbs.
STEP 3
Add in the jar of tomato pasta sauce and the chopped tomatoes and mix really well.
STEP 4
To make your own white sauce, melt the butter in a pan and stir in the flour.
STEP 5
Cook over a low heat for one minute stirring.
STEP 6
Take off the heat and beat in the milk a little at a time until everything is well mixed and smooth.
STEP 7
Season with the mustard, salt and black pepper.
STEP 8
Return to the heat and bring to the boil, add half the cheese and stir in.
STEP 9
Back to the lasagne. In the slow cooker basin, layer up the meat sauce and the pasta sheets ensuring that you have at least 3 layers of pasta to absorb the liquid.
STEP 10
Put the lid on tightly and cook on a HIGH setting for 5-6 hours.
STEP 11
When cooked, sprinkle the rest of the cheese on the top to serve.
STEP 12
If your slow cooker basin is oven-proof, place under a hot grill for a bubbling cheesy top.
