Method

Ingredients

1. To make the lasagne sheets, combine the flour and salt and make a well in the centre. Add the water, olive oil, turmeric, and mix until a rough dough forms. Knead for 8–10 minutes until smooth and elastic. Add turmeric. Cover and rest for 30 minutes.
2. Divide the dough into manageable pieces. Using a pasta machine, roll out each piece starting at the widest setting working down to a lasagne-sheet thickness. Cut the sheets to fit your baking dish and set aside.
3. Preheat the oven to 200°C.
4. Combine the Beyond mince with the parsley and season to taste.
5. Blend the tofu, almond milk, garlic and olive oil until smooth and creamy. Season to taste.
6. Spoon a little passata into a baking dish. Layer with the lasagne sheets, Beyond mince mixture, baby marrow, tofu cream and more passata. Repeat the layers, finishing with baby marrow and tofu cream.
7. Bake for 25–30 minutes, or until the pasta is tender and the Beyond mince is cooked through and bubbling.
8. Garnish with lemon zest, hard cheese, parsley, basil and dill. Serve immediately.
