Method

  • 1.
    For the ragout, heat the oil in a large, deep frypan over medium heat, and add chorizo, rosemary, garlic, carrot, onion and celery. Cook, breaking up chorizo with a wooden spoon and stirring occasionally, for 8 minutes or until chorizo is browned and vegetables are softened.
  • 2.
    Increase heat to high and add the pork and veal mince. Cook, breaking up with a wooden spoon, for 10 minutes or until browned. Add tomato paste and cook, stirring, for 5 minutes or until caramelised.
  • 3.
    Add the wine and simmer for 2 minutes, then add the stock and tomato. Bring to the boil, then reduce heat to low and gently simmer, stirring occasionally, for 1 hour or until sauce is thick and rich.
  • 4.
    Cool, then store refrigerated for up to 5 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
  • 5.
    For the lasagne, place a small amount of ragout in base of a large ovenproof frypan. Add 3 lasagne sheets, then pour over remaining ragout.
  • 6.
    Stir through mascarpone. Break up remaining lasagne sheets and push into the sauce. Top with mozzarella.
  • 7.
    Cover pan and cook over medium-low heat for about 12 minutes or until the pasta is al dente.
