Lasagne - ingredients for 4 people:
Meat Sauce
• 1lb. ground beef
• 1 Large onion finely chopped
• 2 cloves of garlic mashed
• 116oz. Can of chopped tomatoes
• 2ozs. strong tomato paste
• 2 beef bouillon cubes
• 1/4 Teaspoon dried chilli powder

• 1 Good pinch nutmeg
Topping
• Freshly grated Parmesan

For the Bolognese sauce fry the onions in olive oil, about five minutes, until it softens. Add the meat mix and stir well to make sure that all the lumps are removed, about ten minutes. When the meat and onion mix is nicely browned turn down the heat and add the garlic, stir for another five minutes Add all the other ingredients except the lemon juice and let the sauce cook out at a simmer for 45 minutes. Remove from the heat and add the lemon juice. Use a earthenware to place lasagne and spoon in the sauce until evenly covered. Repeat until you have THREE layers of pasta and a layer of sauce on top, but leave room for the béchamel. Cover tightly with foil and bake in the oven for 30 minutes at 400ºf/200ºc. Make the béchamel in a saucepan by melting the butter, add the flour and stir until well bursted. Add the stock cube and half the milk bit-by-bit stirring all the time. Then whisk on the rest of the milk and the nutmeg until you have a smooth creamy sauce. Take the foil off your lasagne and put on the bechamel - cover with cheese and crumbs. Return to the oven and finish under the grill until golden brown.
