Method

  1. To make the cheese sauce: melt the butter with the flour in a small saucepan over a medium heat. Slowly whisk in the milk, stirring constantly, and cook for about 5 mins until the sauce has thickened. Remove from the heat, then stir in 50g cheese. Allow to cool for a few mins before stirring in the crème fraîche.
  2. To assemble: layer up the lasagne in a large ovenproof dish, starting with half of the tortilla chips, then half the Bolognese, half the cheese sauce, then half of the remaining grated cheese. Repeat the layers, finishing with the rest of the grated cheese. The cheese sauce won’t cover all of a layer, so spoon it around randomly, so you still have a few crispy bits.

  3. Place in the preheated oven and bake the dish for 20 mins at gas 6, 200°C, fan 180°C. Top with basil leaves and serve with a green salad.
