  • British Lasagna is comfort food at best. Great from the oven but can be eaten cold. This is my take on probably hundreds of different British versions. I love a British Lasagna with a bit of salad and coleslaw, hey but that’s me!

    Suggestion to all viewers on the question as to whether or not this is true Lasagne. Look up the definition and read about its origins. It said there are two common styles of Lasagne. One is Italian. The other referred to as American is prepared exactly the way Chef Rik made it. We all need to have a more open mind when it comes to food nowadays. There are so many fusions in many dishes from almost every country. When in doubt, we can always Google the definition and obtain more information. Have a pleasant day everyone. 😊❤

    I used to make Lasagne a lot but haven’t made it for ages cos it’s only me. I’m going to start making it again cos I do love lasagne. I always make mine very much like yours and your bechamel sauce is exactly like mine too. I used to make sauces with cornflour till I began cooking for the nuns and also in an aged care facility. I learned to do things a lot different.

    Talk about coincidence, I made a lasagna last night. My Mrs is a purist re béchamel sauce, she insists on boiling milk with onion and bay leaves etc and then add that to a roux. I’m lazy so what I used to do was combine cornstarch/cornflour with the butter/margarine then add milk and heat while stirring so I never got any lumps. I’ve adapted my method now. I boil the milk with the onions and bay leaves. I then use the onions and leaves in the spaghetti sauce. I add cornflour, a teaspoon of mustard powder and butter to the cool milk and heat. This gives me the best of both worlds. I also add chilli, bacon and store bought pasta sauce to the meat along with red wine and Worcestershire sauce, sugar and a dash of vinegar, my son adds a spicy sliced sausage as well when he cooks. Please try the béchamel method, I’m sure you will love it; full flavour and no lumps and (aside from cooling time) very fast. Our standard spaghetti sauce invariably includes grated carrot& zucchini, finely chopped celery inc leaves, basil & spinach leaves. Sometimes grated potatoes too. Anything to get more veggies into the boys. Cheers mate

    When you realize Lasagna has a deeply British root it's crazy. The Romans or Greeks I can't remember had a version of it too but what were all mostly familiar with is what the Brits gave us.

    Cheers Rik that looks great! I often just use minced pork here in LOS as beef mince is a little bit too pricey but still works well. I've not made a lasagna for years but use pork or chicken mince or sometimes a mix of the two for spag bol and of course kick it up a notch with chilli flakes. Ta mate

      Lasagna, often associated with Italy, actually originated in ancient Greece. The name "lasagna" is derived from the Greek word "lasagna," which refers to a flat sheet of pasta dough cut into strips. The concept of lasagna then made its way to Italy, where it evolved into its current form by adding traditional Italian ingredients like tomatoes, meats, and cheeses. The modern version of lasagna that we're familiar with, layered with these ingredients and baked, was developed in Italy. However, look at the title again: BRITISH LASAGNA - nothing to do with Italy.
