Cooking Instructions:
  • Before cooking

    Preheat the oven to 210°c (fan bake). Boil the kettle.

  • 1. TO PREPARE THE LENTIL FILLING:

    Place the lentils into a sieve, rinse under running water and drain well. Slice the silverbeet into ½ cm strips discarding the stalk. Peel and grate the carrot. Place a non-stick frying pan over a medium-high heat with 1 tbsp of oil. Once hot add the silverbeet and cook for 1-2 mins. Add the red wine ragu, lentils and carrot to the pan and cook for a further 2-3 mins stirring occasionally. Season with salt and pepper.

  • 2. TO PREPARE THE LASAGNE:

    Warm the cheese sauce for 60 secs in the microwave or place in a pot and heat gently over a low heat. Slice the fresh lasagne sheets in half. Lightly oil a baking dish and add 1/2 of the lentil filling to the dish. Spread evenly to cover the bottom and cover with a lasagne sheet or two. Continue with the remaining lentils and cover with the lasagne sheets. Spoon over the warmed cheese sauce on top and sprinkle with the parmesan crumb.

  • 3. TO COOK THE LASAGNE:

    Place into the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 mins or until the top is golden and bubbling. Remove from the oven and let it sit for a few mins.

  • 4. TO PREPARE AND COOK THE BROCCOLI:

    Pour boiling water from the kettle into a pot, season with salt and place over a high heat. Use half the broccoli and slice into small bite sized pieces. Once the water is boiling add to the pot and cook for 2-3 mins. Drain into a colander. Season with pepper and a knob of butter.

  • To serve:

    Using a fish-slice cut the lasagne into sections and serve on a plate with a side of buttery broccoli.
