One-Skillet Lasagne

As much as I love the traditional lasagne, layering can be quite tedious. 

So I found this delicious lasagne recipe made in just one-skillet.
Toss all ingredients together in the skillet, let it cook and then serve.

No stress, no mess. One-skillet/ one-pot wonder meals always top my list!

Ingredients

2 tbsp olive oil

1 onion, finely diced

1 carrot, finely diced

500g beef mince

2 tbsp tomato paste

700g passata or pasta sauce

4 spinach lasagne sheets

250g ricotta

1/4 cup parmesan

1/2 cup mozzarella
handful of basil leaves

Method

* Heat oil in deep frying pan over medium-high heat. Add onion and carrot and cook for 5 mins. 

Add meat and cook for another 5 mins or until meat is browned. Stir in tomato paste, passata and 1 cup water cook until it boils. Reduce heat and simmer for 5 mins.

* Cut lasagne sheets in half (crosswise) add to the pan one at a time to avoid sticking together. Stir and cook for 15 mins or until pasta is tender.

* Sprinkle mozzarella and ricotta over the mixture. Cook for 2 mins until cheese melts. Sprinkle basil leaves.
