Syn free lasagne on EE (using hex A)

Was the meat mixture watery when you were cooking it in the pan? If it was then as Circes said, keep cooking without a lid until the water has boiled off and it has thickened.
If the meat mixture was thick when you put it in the baking dish, the water may have come off the fromage frais. Whenever I cook with yoghurt or fromage frais I always seem to get a lot of water, so that might well have been what it was that made the bottom watery.
 
Oh ok, I was a bit worried about cooking it too long on the hob so I really only browned the meat and then added it to the dish. I'll know to let it simmer longer now. Thanks :D
 
A great recipe...thanks for sharing..:)
 
Made this the other day but didn't use the quark White sauce in it as I don't like my lasagne creamy, but more tomato flavour. The usual lasagne recipe lean mince, fresh garlic, onion, herbs, tin chopped tomato, passata, peppers, beef stock (only 100ml) Worcester sauce and a bit of chilli powder as I like a kick too it and just added my 28g HEA cheese on the top and served with SW chips and salad with the (fry light brand) fat free balsamic salad dressing.
Served in little pots so gives you a nice pub meal sort of feel haha it was beautiful :)

I sometimes add chilli for extra flavour or a change. I think using 2 eggs with the quark can make it more saucy if you prefer it this way!
 
Made this for dinner last Sunday....very nom-nom indeed!

Thanks for sharing! :)
 
Mmm, I love lasagne and this sounds/looks absolutely delicious! Will definitely be trying it out :drool:
Thanks for posting! xx
 
Hi Everyone,

I know this is quite an old thread so am hoping some of you who have made this are still on here...I'm not a fan of quark as I find it too bitter/sour so I wondered those who have made this can you still taste the quark once it has been cooked? I know this may be a silly question but I really want to make a SW friendly lasagne but want to check this first x
