Beef Lasagne

What is it?

Layered beef ragu sits between pasta sheets and béchamel sauce, with a cheese topping that browns in the oven. It’s a frozen ready meal from Sainsbury’s, portioned as a single-serving lasagne and built in the usual Italian-inspired style, with sauce, pasta and meat all cooked together from frozen or after thawing, depending on the pack instructions. Compared with other Sainsbury’s frozen meals, it’s one of the more traditional pasta options, using minced beef, tomato-based sauce and milk-rich white sauce rather than a cream-heavy filling. The structure is familiar: soft layers, a saucy centre and a browned top once heated.
