500g blend grated mozzarella, cheddar and parmesan cheese

350g fresh ricotta

3.Spoon about one third of the remaining meat sauce over the lasagne sheets to cover well. Sprinkle about one third of the blended cheese only over the meat. Place another layer of lasagne sheets on top.

4.Spoon another one third meat sauce over the lasagne sheets then spoon the fresh ricotta over the meat sauce. Top with more lasagne sheets. Repeat with the remaining meat sauce and another one third of the cheese. Top with the last layer of lasagne sheets and sprinkle with the remaining cheese.

5.Loosely cover lasagne with aluminium foil and bake for 40 minutes. Remove foil and bake, uncovered, for a further 20 minutes or until the top is golden and the lasagne sheets are cooked. To test, place a small sharp knife through the lasagne, if soft the sheets are cooked.
