Peel and finely dice or chop the carrot, onion and garlic. Halve the cherry tomatoes. Heat olive oil in a large heatproof frying pan. Fry ground beef in it until crumbly, season with pepper and salt.

Step 2

Utensils: oven (optional)

Deglaze with red wine and beef stock. Add tomato purée, dried herbs and chili flakes to taste, stir well and bring to a simmer. Season generously with salt and pepper. Break the lasagna sheets into large pieces and add to the pan. Make sure they are evenly distributed and press them into the sauce as needed to ensure they are well covered. Cover the pan and simmer for approx. 20 min. Stir once or twice in between until the lasagna sheets are tender. If using the oven, preheat it to 230°C/445°F top/bottom heat.
