  • Finely chop the onion and garlic, peel and finely grate the carrots.
  • Heat the olive oil in a large saucepan over medium to high heat and sauté the onion with the garlic, carrots and tomato pastee.
  • Then add the minced meat, mix well and season immediately with salt and pepper.
  • Simmer for 5 minutes, stirring constantly, and then add the chopped tomatoes.
  • Then pour in the beef stock, break the raw lasagne sheets into pieces and mix into the soup. While it is simmering on low heat, season if necessary, as the pasta soaks up the spices. The soup should simmer until the lasagne sheets are al dente.
  • Finally, it can be rounded off with  a bit of cream or crème fraîche to make it nice and rich.
