    Utensils Used
    | 1. Preheat oven to 180°C. | 2. To make bechamel, melt butter in a pan over low heat. | 3. Stir in flour and cook for one minute. | 4. Remove from heat, add bay leaves and nutmeg and gradually stir in milk - I use a whisk from here. | 5. Return to low heat and keep whisking and stirring for about 5 minutes, should thicken nicely. Put aside, season and remove bay leaves. | 6. Now heat oil in a large frypan and add onion and garlic. | 7. Cook over med heat about 2 minutes, then add sweet potato. Cook another 3 minutes. | 8. Add mushrooms, oregano and zucchini and cook another 5 minutes til veggies are just softening. Remove from heat and add tomatoes and paste. | 9. To assemble, place half the veggie mix in the bottom of a large shallow oven dish. ( I used a 26cm x 20cm dish, 5cm deep and it was only just big enough! ). | 10. Top with 1/3 lasagna sheets, cover with all the ricotta and 1/4 the parmesan. | 11. Top with another 1/3 lasagna sheets, cover with other half veggies and 1/4 parmesan. | 12. Top with rest of lasagna sheets, cover with the bechamel and rest of parmesan - make sure completely covered. | 13. Bake for 45 minutes or until nicely golden and tender. | 14. Serve with a big crunchy salad! | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
