Thanks for all the support and publicity, I've received response from my readers and they are simply so well done. I will be posting the top 3 entries and their prizes! For now please enjoy my favourite entry~~~~~~
Today Amins will show you how easy it is to cook lasagna..or to be exact "Amins' Inner Beauty Lasagna"
What you will need:Baking ovenElectricity (ok thats lame =X)
Baking tin (tall longish rectangular shape)
Aluminium foil (optional)
(and the im-sure-you-have-them-at-home stuffs)
Boiling PotContainer
Cooking oil
Frying pan
Ingredients:Some potatoes (5 regular-sized ones will be enough)
Shredded cheddarCheese slices
Spaghetti sauce
Spaghetti cream sauce
Minced meat (beef/chicken) / or you could use burger patties
Actually lasagna will taste better with beef....so why chicken?Well..some people can't eat beef in the same way that some people can't eat pork....so let us try using chicken and see how it tastes.Well, I used chicken burger patties.. for convenience sake.Remember to thaw the patties until they are soft.If not, you could use a microwave oven to help you thaw em.Pre-heat oven to 350 degree F (175 degree C) before you start.

Step 1: Boil the potatoes with high heat (For at least 15 mins / or until the potatoes turn soft)

Step 2: While waiting for the potatoes, cut the patties into as many small pieces as you can.


Step 3: Fry the "minced chicken patties"

Step 4: Peel the boiled potatoes and cut them into similar thickness..


Step 5: Mix the fried minced chicken and spaghetti sauce.Make sure that it's chunky and not too watery.



Step 6: First layer. Spread layer of the sauce mix into the baking tin.Not too thick though!


Step 7: 2nd layer. Place potato slices on top of the mix.Try to cover every "holes" and make em evenly spreaded out.


Step 8: 3rd Layer. Spread cream sauce.

Step 9: 4th layer. Put cheese slices.


Step 10: 5th layer. Sprinkle shredded cheddar.



(Okay~~ Time to repeat the few previous steps)Step 11: 6th layer. Spread sauce mix again.


Step 12: 7th layer. Potato slices again.


Step 13: 8th layer. Cream sauce again.




Step 14: 9th layer. Cheese slices again.


Step 15: 10th layer. Sprinkle cheddar cheese again.


Step 16: 11th & final layer. Finally~~! Spread sauce mix again.And then sprinkle some shredded cheddar again.


Step 17: Time to bake!! Approximately, 30-40 mins.Depends on your oven's capability. =S
Step 18: When you see some edges of the top layer being slightly burnt,this means it's ready!!

Step 19: Remove from oven and let it cool for 10-15 minutes before serving.Total time I took: Abt 1 hour
Okay okay..... I know it doesn't look the best..Now you know why it's called the Inner Beauty Lasagna.. =XDoesn't look good but taste good! =D

Me not pleased with the look of the lasagna. =(
