Heat oil in a large frying pan over medium heat. Cook onion, stirring, for 5 mins or until soft. Add garlic and cook for 1 min. Add mince and cook, stirring with a wooden spoon to break up lumps, for 8 mins or until mince changes colour. Add the tomato paste and cook for 1 min. Add the tomato, oregano, soy sauce, stock cube and 1/2 cup (125ml) hot water and stir to combine. Bring to the boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer, stirring occasionally, for 30 mins or until the sauce thickens.
Meanwhile, to make the cheese sauce, melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium-low heat. Add the flour and cook, stirring, for 1 min or until grainy. Reduce heat to low. Gradually whisk in the milk until smooth. Increase heat to medium. Cook, stirring, for 5 mins or until the mixture boils and thickens. Remove from heat. Stir in the cheese until melted. Season.
Preheat oven to 180°C. Grease a 23cm x 32cm baking dish. Spread 1 tbs cheese sauce over the base of the dish. Top with some of the lasagne sheets, trimming to fit. Spread with half the mince mixture, then spread with one-third of the remaining cheese sauce. Repeat layering with half the remaining lasagne sheets, remaining mince mixture and half the remaining cheese sauce. Top with the remaining lasagne sheets and cheese sauce. Sprinkle with cheddar.
Bake for 40-45 mins or until top is golden and lasagne sheets are tender. Serve with garden salad.
COOK. STORE. SAVE.
Use it up: When cooking soups, such as tomato or minestrone, break up any remaining lasagne sheets and add them to the mixture.
