Overview
I’m not really a fan of White Sauce or Béchamel Sauce, but pop some cheese in and slap it into lasagne and I’m a very happy camper. Use this as a base for Mac & Cheese if you like, or omit the cheese for the kind of sauce I think ruins vegetables! This recipe uses the Thermomix, so there’s no gruntwork in stirring as the traditional method requires. There’s enough here for 1 regular lasagne with a layer’s worth left over.
