Ingredients

Ingredients:

* 12 fresh Lasagne sheets

* 500 g Spinach leaves

* 250 g Ricotta cheese

* 200 g Cheddar Cheese, grated

* 200 g Mozzarella, grated

* 1/2 tsp Nutmeg

* 40 g Pine nuts, lightly toasted

* 10 g Parmesan, grated

* 20 g Butter

* Salt and Pepper

White sauce:

* 850 ml Milk

* 40 g Butter

* 40 g Flour

* 50 g Parmesan, grated

* Salt and Pepper

Directions

Method:

* To make the sauce: Pour the milk into a saucepan and add butter, flour and salt and pepper. Cook over medium heat while stirring continuously for 5 minutes, then simmer over low heat for 5 minutes until thickened. Remove from the heat, stir in the parmesan, then cover and leave aside.

* Preheat the oven to 180 C/ gas mark 4.

* Cook the spinach leaves in a large saucepan with 20 g butter and some salt for about 2 minutes, stiring once. Drain the spinach and squeeze to remove as much water as possible. Chop the spinach leaves finely and put in a large bowl.

* Add ricotta, nutmeg, 1/3 of the white sauce and salt and pepper and mix well. Add grated cheddar and roasted pine nuts and mix well.

* Pour a few spoons of sauce at the bottom of an oven proof dish (23cm x 23cm), then spread a few spoons of spinach mixture and a handful of grated mozzarella before putting a layer of lasagne sheets on top. Repeat this procedure for another two times.

* After putting the last layer of lasagne sheets, pour over the remaining sauce with mozzarella and sprinkle the top with grated parmesan.

* Cook in the oven for 60 minutes and leave for 5 minutes before serving.

Happy cooking:-)

Sounds great, being a Yank (albeit a mid western one) I would have to take some time to decipher the metric to standard otherwise it would be a real chore. It does look good.
