Here’s a little secret: I’ve never made lasagne before.

Of course I wasn’t just going to wing it for my first try, so I did a bit of research on one of my favourite sites; Jamie Oliver’s website. He’s got a number of lasagne recipes on there, but this one tickled my fancy as it seemed the most traditional, and the ingredients would be easy to find at my local grocer.
