So today we are eating lasagna, a meal that is always loved in the family. Also a great way to use up leftovers in the fridge. We had leftover carrots, celery sticks and mushrooms, but the recipe can also be made without them. If you want to make the meal vegetarian, simply leave out the minced meat.
​
The tomato sauce as described below (with a little more bullion) can also be used as a sauce over spaghetti!
Mis en place
Chop the onions and garlic
Cut the peppers. carrots and celery in small cubes (not too small)
Cut the mushrooms into slices and a few into quarters.
Grate the goat cheese and feta cheese
Cut anchovies into small pieces
​
and....
if you use fresh thyme and rosemary, remove the leaves from the sprigs and chop finely.
Preparation
Preheat the oven to 180 degrees
The tomato sauce:
Fry the mushrooms in a separate frying pan with some vegetable oil
In another pan (we use a frying pan so you can stir without it flying out of the pan) fry the onions and garlic.
After about 5 minutes, add the pepper and let it simmer nicely.
After about 5 minutes, add the minced meat and loosen it so that it falls apart (they call it fritters here).
Increase the heat a bit and then add the carrots and celery and stir again.
​
Add bay leaves, rosemary, thyme and oregano and stir.
​
Add tomato puree and stir.
Add canned tomatoes and bullion and stir.
and finally add the champions, stir and you're done.
​
Cheese mixture:
Feta in a bowl, add the cottage cheese and 150 g of the goat cheese and mix evenly.
​
Filling the glass bowl:
1 - cover the bottom of the bowl with the tomato sauce.
2 - spread some dollops of the cheese mixture (see photo and make sure you save at least half for the final layer!)
3 - cover with lasagna sheets.
Repeat this until your sauce is used up, but then place lasagna sheets last but divide the rest of the cheese mixture and spread evenly.
Sprinkle the rest of the goat cheese over the cheese mixture.
Sprinkle some breadcrumbs over the grated cheese.
Place dish in the oven: 30 minutes.
