Lasagna - I forgot to buy all the ingredients recipe!
Ingredients needed for this recipe:
- 1lb Ground Beef 1 lb lean ground beef
- Tomatoes
- Cheese
- Lasagna noodles.
- And lots other stuff that I forgot to purchase.
As the name of this recipe suggests I forgot most of the stuff when I went shopping so it's basically just a raid of what I had in the cupboards at that time. So forget the above and you'll have to mark off what I use as we go along.
First off the mark what we need is some cooking music, so it's over to the old music collection to see what we've got. Here I've selected the mighty Death in June - All Pigs Must Die as judging by the amount of pork products there's going to be in this recipe they must of. |
 |
Right now that we've selected our music it's time to toddle off to the fridge and find some small sausages in that are too puny to have in a proper fry up. Cut them lengthwise with a knife, not all the way through mind. We just want to pierce the skin so we can get to all the lovely minced pig bits inside.
Deposit the innards into a bowl; add a bit of olive oil; Now mush it up!
|
|
Cut them, but not all the way through. |
Deposit sausage meat into bowl. |
Once you think you've collected enough guts from your Sausages put them in a frying pan on low heat. until they turn brown, that's so you know they're cooked and your not going to be doubled up over the toilet with food poisoning.
|
|
Put the sausage meat into a frying pan, low heat to cook. |
Bung yourself in a sausage as well to eat while your waiting later on |
While your waiting for the meat to brown up we can start to make our sauce.
May The Sauce Be With You.
For this you'll need:
- Butter
- Cheese
- Milk
- Flour
- Wine
- Vodka
|
|
Firstly, and most importantly. Drink the Vodka.
Unfortunately I got a little bit distracted at this point with making the sauce but basically mix melted butter, flour, milk, cheese and wine if you have no wine like I did, use vodka. Add herbs and spices to taste.
It should end up looking like this.
Building The Layers
Right now it's time to build our layers people. For this you will need:
- Bacon
- Lasagna noodles
- Spicy sausages
- Cheese
- Rum
|
|
First off, and I can't stress this enough. Drink the Rum.
Now fry up the bacon. Once it's done cover the bottom of your baking dish with it.
|
|
| |
Make sure to cover the whole of the bottom. |
Add some grated cheese to the bottom to bind together different bacon pieces.
Now the key when building up your layers is to remember this simple structure. Meat, Lasagna, Sauce.
Next add a layer of lasagna noodles, break up extra
slices to cover as needed |
 |
Then add a layer of sauce |
 |
Then add your nice sausage meat bits.
As you can tell my sausage meat didn't quiet cover the layer so I chopped up some spicy sausage and used them to plug the gaps.....kinda. |
 |
|
 |
Next add some more sauce. No wait that's not right is it! Remember it's Meat, Lasagna, Sauce. NOT Meat, Lasagna, Sauce, Meat, Sauce.
You idiot. |
 |
Regroup time.....
|
|
D'oh! Meat, Lasagna, Sauce, Meat, Sauce. what was I thinking! |
Time for some "inspiration" |
Bollocks to it. I'll just stick the pasta on now and nobody will be any the wiser. So it's another layer of pasta then topped off with some cheese and some herbs. Oh and some more bacon.
|
|
Cheese and herbs cover the mistake. |
And extra bacon gets me thinking positive again. |
Bung in the oven for about 30 minutes on hot. Then eat.
|
|
Going in. |
And coming out.... you can almost taste the heart attack |
The Verdict.
Very nice. Very meaty. Strangely it reminded me of eating a burrito. I made too much as usual. And the layering mistake still haunts me.
