An easy lasagne recipe from my kitchen for you all skipping the ricotta, plus i have used both mutton mince and boneless chicken cubes as an innovation. The main aim behind making it this way is that Parmesan cheese is not available readily in many places as well as the ricotta. Though it can be made at home, i felt of giving this classic dish a makeover with just 2 cheeses that are available and pretty much handy too. Mozzarella and Cheddar are the 2 beauties that i have basically used in this dish to whip up the most goeey and cheesy Family Lasagne ever. My family just devoured it within no time and i was flooded with compliments at dinner table. Wishing you the same experience as mine dear friends,

Steps

50 minutes

1

In a cooking pot, heat olive oil and butter first. Add garlic mince and saute for a minute before adding onions.
2

Saute them until light pink in colour. Now add the mince along with ground pepper and cumin powder. Saute it for a minute or two and add boneless chicken cubes of very small size. Give all a good stir and add fresh tomato puree.
3

You can even blanch fresh tomatoes and de skin them and use the pulp after mashing well. Use tomatoes according to your choice. Do not add a single drop of water. The meat gets cooked in it's own juices and allow it to simmer on a low heat for 25-30 minutes with a lid on. The longer the better.
4

Also add half of the quantity of salt mentioned. Meanwhile boil lasagne sheets with the other half of the quantity of salt mentioned. Boil them for 8 to 10 minutes and drain.
5

Preheat oven on 180°. Now comes the assembling part. In a baking dish, add the cooked mince and chicken mix. Followed by a few sheets of lasagne preferably 4-5. You can do it depending upon the size of your dish.
6

And finally top it up with the cheese either shredded or just torn into large pieces as seen along with cheddar cheese slices 3-4 in each layer. Follow this layering style and the top layer should be that of the mince and chicken mix with a generous topping of mozzarella cheese.
7

Sprinkle some oregano or Italian seasoning and cover it up with a butter paper or an aluminium foil. Bake for 25 minutes until the top looks golden in colour and smells heavenly. Cut into rectangles and serve piping hot directly from the oven to the plate to relish it's awesome flavour and texture.

Homemaker by choice and a passionate cook by heart. An aspiring cook who actually never knew anything about Cooking until i became a mother myself.With Motherhood came the responsibilities as well and this was the turning point in my life.I started to learn the ABC's of cooking, taking help from my mother and my MIL. And time just flew. I spread my wings higher and higher. With my love for excellence and innovation, i stepped into a world of homecooks with my exposure to Cookpad one fine day on the social media. And there was no looking back since then and i have not only shared recipes here on this wonderful platform but also have made some lovely friends as well. Today iam successful because of my hard work, dedication and loads of good wishes of my family and my kids in particular.
