Aldi's air fryer lasagne recipeIngredients500g lean steak minced beef One medium white onion, diced 125g chestnut mushrooms, diced Two garlic cloves, crushed One tbsp olive oil ½ tsp Dried Chilli Flakes Half tsp dried chilli flakes Salt and pepper to taste 500g Cucina Tomato Sauce Bechamel Sauce 50g butter 50g plain flour 550ml milk A pinch of salt and pepper Lasagne Eight dried lasagne sheets 180g grated mozzarella Fresh basil How to make lasagne in an air fryerBegin by making the bolognese, heat the olive oil in a large frying pan, then add the steak minced beef and cook for five to 10 minutes until the mince is fully browned. Now add the chopped onions, garlic and mushrooms to the frying pan and cook for a further five minutes. Pour in the tomato sauce along with 100ml of water, then mix everything well to combine. Season with salt and pepper, plus the dried chilli flakes, then leave the mixture to simmer for five to 10 minutes. Now preheat the air fryer to 180C then either grease or line your air fryer basket. While the bolognese simmers, make a start on the bechamel sauce. In a saucepan melt the butter and then add the flour and mix until you have a smooth paste. Gradually add the milk, whisking in between, to form a thick and smooth sauce, then season with salt and pepper. Now layer the lasagne in the air fryer basket, starting with a third of the bolognese on the bottom in one layer, and top with a layer of lasagne sheets. Follow with a layer of bechamel sauce and a sprinkling of mozzarella, then repeat to make three layers and top with the remaining bechamel sauce and mozzarella. Place in the air fryer for 30-40 minutes or until the lasagne sheets are fully cooked and serve topped with fresh basil. Source link Posted: 2024-07-29 05:19:31 |
