Cheese sauce in a lasagne?

[Smellbellina]

Or should it be bechamel? I always do cheese but following a new recipe that’s just bechamel sauce with cheese on the top

I used to make cheese and potato pie with a layer of potato then cheese and potato then cheese, finished off with loads of cheese

We always put cheese sauce in. We also use flour tortillas rather than pasta. Yummy.

I use cheese sauce. I'm not very classy though.

Bechamel with parmesan on top

Bechamel. Wow a cheese sauce would make it so unhealthy

Cheese sauce. Bechamel is dull. Bechamel with Parmesan is cheese sauce.

Bechamel only, with grated parmesan on top.

Italian mum here, yes, just Bechamel with Parmesan sprinkled through each layer. Meat sauce should be really simple too, with no weird vegetables eg: pepper in it. Ideally the lasagna should be "verdi" too, but very difficult to get fresh in this country.

Jamie has a great cheat version with creme fraiche, Parmesan, anchovies. I’m never going back.

Always cheese sauce here too.

I do bechamel with about 50g grated cheddar, nutmeg and salt and pepper. It's just enough cheese to lift it but not so much that your lasagne turns into a cheeseburger.

I am a total heathen

My lasagne goes meat, butternut squash slices, a thick layer of mascarpone, more butternut squash slices, meat again, more butternut squash slices then mozarella and cheddar on top.

Unconventional, but bloody gorgeous!

Italian family here too.
Bechamel, mozzarella and a bit of grated cheese in each layer.
I've never done the boiled egg bit but we're in a different part of Italy to where it's the tradition.

Bechamel but now you've said cheese sauce that's what I want in in instead, or possibly as well as. I've previously been told off for putting Dulce de Leche in apple crumble and for putting baked beans in Shepherd Pie.

I do it lasagne sheet, meat sauce, lasagne sheet, meat sauce, lasagne sheet, meat sauce, lasagne sheet, bechamel and a sprinkling of grated mozzarella. Don't like cheese but I can cope with a bit of mozzarella on top.

I use cheddar! Mozzarella just isn't cheesy enough.

Curious about the egg, I did a vegetarian moussaka recipe the other day and it called for an egg mixed in with the sauce (I forgot so may never know how that would be). Maybe that is an alternative to chopped up egg?

@Hoppity I always put baked beans in cottage pie!

I put an egg yolk in mine as well! Completely forgot.

I vote for cheese sauce. Every time. cheese fan

Bechamel. I despise cheese sauce in lasagne but I do love loads of cheese on top!

Béchamel with grated Parmesan sprinkled on top.

Bechamel here with sliced mozzarella melted on top, & a sprinkle of parmesan

Well I sprinkled a bit of Parmesan into the sauce and plenty on top, otherwise I followed Lorraine Pascal’s dad’s recipe, it was, and I quote ‘the best one i’ve ever had’! Easy too!

Always cheese sauce, but it's basically just bechamel with some cheddar cheese, and maybe some mascarpone, stirred in.

Steep the milk base for the sauce with bay leaves, peppercorns, cloves, garlic and nutmeg for a few hours first.
