2 Place the spread, flour and milk in a pan and bring to the boil, whisking continuously. Simmer for 1 minute. Season.

3 Place some lasagne in the base of a lightly greased dish. Spoon over some of the mince. Pour some sauce over this. Repeat the layers. Top with the remaining lasagne. Press down slightly. Pour over the remaining cheese sauce. Sprinkle with cheese.
