Cheesy lasagne stuffed inside garlicky bread - a dreamy dinner delight!
Ingredients:
  • 750.00 ml plain flour, plus extra for dusting
  • 6 garlic cloves, crushed
  • 2 x 7g sachets dried yeast
  • 2.50 gm caster sugar
  • 75.08 gm extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 small brown onion, finely chopped
  • 500g beef mince
  • 400g jar tomato and basil pasta sauce
  • 123.75 gm red wine
  • 200ml tub crème fraîche
  • 250.00 ml finely grated parmesan
  • 4 fresh lasagne sheets
  • 375.00 ml grated mozzarella
  • 20g butter, melted
  • 2 tsp finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves
  • Salad leaves, to serve
Instructions:
  • In a large bowl, combine flour and garlic, then season with salt and pepper and make a well in the center. In a separate jug, mix 1 cup warm water with yeast and sugar, let it stand for 10 minutes. Add 1/4 cup oil and the yeast mixture to the well in the flour. Mix until a soft dough forms. Transfer dough onto a floured surface and knead for 5 minutes, adding more flour if needed. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover, and let it rest for 30 minutes.
  • Heat the remaining oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook for 5 minutes until softened. Add the mince and cook for 6 to 8 minutes until browned, breaking up lumps with a wooden spoon. Stir in the sauce and wine, bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Simmer for 10 minutes until thickened. Let it cool for 30 minutes before serving.
  • Preheat your oven to 200C/180C fan-forced, then generously grease a 4.5cm-deep roasting pan measuring 16.5cm x 22cm at the base and 20.5cm x 26cm at the top.
  • Gently deflate the dough, then shape 3/4 of it onto the base, sides, and rim of the pan. Mix crème fraîche with 1/2 cup parmesan, season with salt and pepper. Layer a lasagne sheet on top, trimming if needed. Spread 1 cup mince mixture over it, then drizzle with 1/3 of the crème fraîche blend. Sprinkle with 1/3 cup mozzarella. Repeat layers twice, ending with a lasagne sheet.
  • Roll out the rest of the dough between 2 sheets of baking paper to create a 20cm x 25cm rectangle. Place the dough over the lasagne sheet, joining the edges together and pleating to seal. Brush the top with butter, sprinkle with the remaining mozzarella and parmesan, season, and bake for 40 minutes or until golden (cover with foil if over-browning). Allow it to stand for 10 minutes, then sprinkle with parsley and serve with salad.
