Ingredients
  

For the Soup
  • 1 medium Onion A base flavor that adds sweetness; use brown, red, or shallots for depth.

  • 2 leaves Bay Leaves Provides an aromatic flavor; optional if unavailable.
  • 5 cloves Garlic Essential for a bold taste; use 5 cloves for maximum flavor.
  • 2 tablespoons Tomato Paste Intensifies the richness of the tomato sauce; no direct substitutes recommended.
  • 1 teaspoon Dried Oregano A herbaceous flavor booster; can substitute with mixed Italian herbs.

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Lasagne Soup
  1. In a large saucepan over medium heat, add a drizzle of olive oil along with chopped onions, diced carrot, and bay leaves. Cook for 5–8 minutes until the onions are translucent and the carrots soften.
  2. Stir in minced garlic and tomato paste, cooking for an additional 2 minutes until the garlic becomes fragrant and the tomato paste darkens slightly.
  3. Increase the heat to high and add the beef mince to the saucepan. Cook until it’s fully browned, about 5–7 minutes.
  4. Pour in the passata and beef stock, followed by the double cream and parmesan rind. Stir well and bring to a lively simmer.
  5. Carefully add the broken lasagne sheets into the simmering broth. Stir gently and let it simmer uncovered for about 10 minutes.
  6. While the soup simmers, mix together ricotta cheese, grated parmesan, minced garlic, and a pinch of nutmeg in a small bowl.
  7. Stir in the chopped spinach and cook for an additional 2–3 minutes, just until the spinach wilts down.
  8. Ladle the Lasagne Soup into bowls, topping each serving generously with the cheesy garlic ricotta.
