Instructions
- Rub olive oil around the inside and outer edge of the 2 Ltr Ultrapro.
- Open cans and combine the tomato puree and crushed tomato in a microwave jug and microwave on high for 5 mins.
- Pour a bit of the warm tomato mixture along the inside base of the 2 Ltr Ultrapro. (this give the lasagna sheets on the base something to cook to).
- Add cooked mince with onion to the tomatoes in the jug and blend with a spatula.
- Mix together the ricotta, pizza plus grated cheese, and freshly torn basil leaves in a large mixing bowl with the spatula.
- Place a sheet of lasagna on top of the sauce mixture inside the 2 Ltr Ultrapro and break another piece to fit all the remaining inside. It is OK to overlap slightly.
- Layer with meat & tomato sauce mixture.
- Layer with the cheese mixture using the spatula. It will be thick and chunky, so scoop and place small amounts on at a time.
- Layer with lasagna sheets.
- Layer the meat & tomato sauce.
- Layer with cheese mixture.
- Repeat 2-3 times total depending on how thick your layers are.
- Microwave on high for 12 minutes. Uncovered. Pre-heat oven to 220°C.
- Remove from microwave to the oven, cook for another 20-25 minutes until the edges are crispy and brown.
- Remove from the oven and allow to set and cool for 20 minutes before serving. Yum!! Yum!!
- Serves up to 12 people, great served with toss salad and garlic/herb bread.
Recipe Notes
Hints By using the “Pizza Plus” grated cheese it gives a nicer flavour, as it contains 3 different cheeses. You can use the puree or crushed tomatoes that do have the herbs in them if you wish. You can use fresh ricotta cheese, it is a little more fiddly though.
