Before you start

Ovenproof pan | Pastry brush | Powerful blender

Prepare the cashews

  • First soak the cashew nuts for the cashew cream in 300 ml of boiling water for 30 minutes

Prepare the lasagne sheets

  • Boil a full kettle and pour the boiling water into a large bowl
  • Using a pastry brush, brush both sides of each lasagne sheet with oil so they are properly coated
  • Put them into the water (oiling them will stop them sticking together while they are part-cooking in the water)

Make the tomato sauce

  • For the tomato sauce, peel and finely chop the onion and garlic, finely slice the mushrooms and slice the courgette into thin half-wheels
  • Chop the chilli finely, removing the seeds if you prefer less heat
  • Lastly, chop the sun-dried tomatoes very finely (easiest if you use scissors)
  • Get a wide ovenproof pot (no plastic/wooden handle and ideally a similar height/depth to a casserole dish) and put on a high heat. Add 2 tablespoons of oil to the pan and leave to heat up. Add the onion, garlic and chilli, and fry for 2 minutes stirring regularly until the garlic is turning golden and the onions are going transparent
  • Now add the mushrooms and courgette and continue to fry for about 2 minutes stirring regularly
  • Next, add the red wine and allow to reduce for 2 minutes. Pour in the chopped tomatoes together with the tomato puree, sun-dried tomatoes, maple syrup, salt and black pepper
  • Bring to the boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 10 minutes. Turn off the heat

For the cashew cream

  • While your tomato sauce is simmering, make your cashew cream
  • Drain and rinse the soaked cashews
  • Put all the ingredients for the cashew cream into a blender and blend until really smooth

Assemble the lasagne

  • Remove half the tomato sauce and put aside, leaving the other half in the pot to use as a base
  • Remove the lasagne sheets form the bowl of water and separate them if they have stuck together a little
  • Use half of them to form a layer on top of the base tomato sauce, cutting the sheets with scissors so that they properly fit the pot (don’t overlap them)
  • On top of your first layer of lasagne sheets, pour half the cashew cream and spread it evenly across the edges
  • Next, add the remaining tomato sauce and spread it out evenly. Top with another layer of lasagne sheets as before, then finish by spooning the remaining cashew cheese on top and spreading it smoothly and evenly
  • Once layered up, put a lid on the pot and cook on the hob on a medium to low heat for 5 - 10 minutes. If you have time and have a grill, remove the lid and place the lasagne under the grill for another 5 - 10 minutes until it starts to turn golden
  • Cut into the lasagne, serve and enjoy!
