Lasagne roll ups

 

Baby its cold outside! Sleet, hail, snow and gale force winds have kept most of Dunedin inside today so what is needed is a nice warm dinner. These lasagne roll ups make a great individual serving and also make a really easy portable lasgane for lunches.

There's nothing really different from a normal lasagne but i'll post the recipe anyway

Here's some help for rolling them up.

Ingredients

500g beef mince

1 clove garlic, crushed

400g can of pasta sauce or 400g can chopped tomatoes with 1 tsp sugar and 2 tsp mixed herbs added.

Fresh lasagne sheets

2 tbsp margarine

2 tbsp flour

1 cup milk

3/4 cup grated cheese

1/4 cup grated parmesan

1. In a fry pan heat 1 tbsp oil and add the mince.

2. Cook the mince, breaking it up until it is browned.

3. Add the garlic and cook for a further minute.

4. Pour in the pasta sauce/tomato mixture.

5. Bring to the boil then reduce heat and let simmer for 15 minutes or until thick.

6. To make the white sauce: Melt the margarine in a small saucepan.

7. Add the flour an cook for a minute

8. Gradually whisk in the milk, trying to get out any lumps.

9. Let simmer for 5 minutes stirring constantly until thick.

10. Lay the lasagne sheet out flat.

11. Picture how you are going to roll up the lasagne. Place a few spoonfuls of mixture about 1/4 the way along the sheet and top with a spoonful of the white sauce.

12. Fold the short side over to cover the mixture.

13. Top with a few more spoonfuls then roll up the rest of the lasagne sheets to make a flat tube.

14. Repeat with the rest of the sheets until you have run out of mince mixture.

15. Place in a baking dish and cover with the rest of the white sauce.

16. Bake at 180 degrees C or until golden.

17. If your lasagne sheets are large your rolls will be large, so a serving may only be 1/2 a roll.
