Cooking Steps
• Preheat oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced. • Grate carrot and zucchini. • Finely chop brown onion (see ingredients).
Little cooks: Under adult supervision, older kids can help grate the carrot.
• Heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Cook beef mince (no ned for oil!), breaking up with a spoon, until just browned, 4-5 minutes.
• Add carrot, zucchini and onion to the frying pan and cook, tossing, until tender, 7-8 minutes. • Reduce heat to medium, then add Aussie spice blend and tomato paste and cook until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. • Add the brown sugar, water and half the chicken-style stock powder. Stir to combine and cook until slightly thickened, 2-3 minutes. • Remove from heat. Season with pepper.
• While the filling is cooking, heat a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the butter and plain flour and cook, stirring, until a thin paste forms, 1 minute. • Slowly whisk in the milk and remaining stock powder and cook, stirring, until thickened, 1-2 minutes. Season with pepper.
• Spoon roughly one quarter of the filling into a baking dish, then top with a layer of lasagne sheets. Repeat with remaining filling and lasagne sheets. • Finish with a final lasagne sheet, then pour over the bechamel sauce. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.
• Bake lasagne until golden, 20-25 minutes. Little cooks: Add the finishing touch and sprinkle over the cheese.
• Divide beef and hidden veggie lasagne between plates. • Tear over parsley to serve. Enjoy!

Review summary
Updated on July 2026- Flavour: Most found the lasagne tasty and satisfying, though several felt it leaned slightly sweet and lacked tomato depth or umami richness.
- Ease of prep: The recipe is straightforward to follow, though many noted it takes longer than a typical weeknight meal due to the béchamel and baking time.
- Suggestions: A very common note was that the filling-to-pasta ratio felt off — using a smaller baking dish, doubling the béchamel, and spreading some sauce between every layer helped significantly. Many also boosted flavour by adding extra tomato paste, passata, diced tomatoes, garlic, Worcestershire sauce, or extra cheese through the layers.
- Leftovers: Several customers found the lasagne tasted even better the next day, and a few successfully took portions to work for lunch.
- Portions: Opinions were mixed — some found it generous enough for four, while others felt the mince quantity was too small relative to the number of pasta sheets supplied.
