Requested by so many since we launched our pasta flour — the keto pasta lasagne! We know you can use Edam sheets, but why would you when you can get it with pasta at only 9g carbs per portion?!

Ingredients
- 1 kg Minced beef
- 3 Celery stalks
- 1 tin Tomatoes
- 2 Onions (finely chopped)
- 1 carton Passata
- 1 square 100% dark chocolate
- 2 Eggs
- 40 g Low-Carb pasta flour
- 200 g Double cream
- 200 g Cream cheese
- 200 g Grated cheddar
- 1 pinch Nutmeg
- 2 cloves Garlic
Instructions
Pasta sheets
- Use the flour to create a small well on your worktop. Crack the eggs into the well and start mixing with a fork.
- As the dough starts to stiffen, use your hands to knead as much as possible until you have a ball of firm dough.
- Wrap in cling film and let rest in the fridge for at least one hour, preferably longer.
- Remove the dough from the fridge, roll it out and cut into sheets.
- Place the pasta sheets in a flat dish with boiling water to par boil.
Lasagne
- Fry the mince and garlic in a deep frying pan.
- Once the mince browns, scoop it out and add the chopped celery and onions to the juices to soak up any fat. Fry until cooked through.
- Put the mince back in the pan and add the tomatoes, passata and taste with salt and pepper.
- Add the chocolate and let it melt through the mixture and allow to thicken.
- Put the cream, cream cheese and nutmeg in a jug and whip it up thoroughly to make a thick "bechmel" style sauce.
- Layer mince, pasta, and creamy sauce as much as you can and top the lasagne with a layer of grated cheddar.
- Bake in the middle of the oven for 45 minutes on 180°C.
Notes
To make the dish go even further, why not add some grated cheddar into the cheese sauce, and some chopped mushrooms in with the onions and celery?

Great recipe. Made it twice now for guests. They loved it. So nice to eat together and the choc made a big boost to the favour
So glad you like it! 🙂
looks amazing. I am veggie so do you have any recommendations for low carb mince (ie probably not quorn mince) – will soya mince absorb enough flavour or still taste like sawdust? Or could one use scrambled tofu maybe?
