PREPARATION TIME 30 MINUTES COOKING TIME 1 HOUR

2 large red onions, finely diced

2 garlic cloves, crushed

1 × 300g pack frozen Quorn mince

1 × 400g can chopped tomatoes

1 × 500g pack tomato passata

2 teaspoons chopped fresh thyme

1 teaspoon vegetable stock powder

250g no pre-cook lasagne verde sheets

for the topping

600ml semi-skimmed milk

2 teaspoons English mustard powder

1 tablespoon cornflour

30g low-fat vegetarian hard cheese, grated

salt and freshly ground black pepper

1 Preheat the oven to 180C, 350F, gas mark 4.

2 Heat a large non-stick pan, and dry-fry the onions and garlic until soft. Add the Quorn mince, and cook until brown.

3 Add the remaining ingredients and simmer gently for 20 minutes to allow the flavours to combine while you make the topping.

4 Heat the milk and mustard powder in a saucepan. Dilute the cornflour with a little cold milk and whisk into the milk and mustard. Season with salt and black pepper.

5 Spoon a thin layer of the sauce into an ovenproof dish. Cover with a layer of lasagne sheets (don’t overlap them, as they will expand during cooking). Continue layering the Quorn sauce and pasta sheets.

6 Cover the top with the remaining sauce and sprinkle with the grated cheese.

7 Bake in the oven for 35–40 minutes until brown.
