Add the marinara sauce and the seasonings. I'm officially declaring this Italian Week here on the blog! Put the milk, onion, bay leaves and cloves into a large saucepan and bring very gently just up to the boil.
Instructions to make My ultimate Highland Beef Lasagne:
- First make the meat sauce: heat the minced beef gentle in a large pan to allow the fat to run out, then turn up the heat to high and fry until browned.
- Add onions and bacon/pancetta and fry for a further 5 minutes. Stir in the flour and then the remaining ingredients. Stir well, bring to the boil and simmer for 5 minutes. Cover with a lid.
- You can either continue simmering this on the hot plate on a low heat for 45 minutes, or transfer to the oven to simmer for 45 minutes if using an oven-proof pan. Simmer until the meat is tender.
- For the bechamel sauce: heat the butter in a medium saucepan on a low heat until melted. Stir in the flour using a hand whisk and cook for around 10 minutes, stirring continuously until the flour is ‘cooked out’. The consistency will change to a thinner ‘sauce’ and the colour may go slightly caramel. This is when you know it is ready to add the milk.
- Gradually whisky in the milk, splash at a time until all the milk has been mixed in and the sauce is thickened. Add the mustard, nutmeg, salt & pepper to taste.
- To assemble the lasagne: take a shallow ovenproof dish, spread ⅓ of the meat sauce over the base of the dish, then top with sheets of lasagne, arranging the sheets edge to edge so they dont overlap. Top this with ⅓ of the white sauce, then ⅓ of the cheese. Repeat these layers until you have nothing left!
- Preheat your oven to 180 degrees fan. - With the grid shelf in the middle of the oven, cook for about 45 minutes until the cheese has browned and the pasta is tender.
Once the vegetables have caramelized, add the beef, pork, salt, pepper, and tomato paste. Once the sauce is dark brown and starting to stick slightly to the bottom of the pan, add the red wine. In a large pot over medium heat, add in ground sausage and ground beef. Use a spoon to break up the meat into small pieces. Add in onion and garlic and cook until meat is well browned, stirring constantly.
