Lasagna with cheese on top

[RainbowRaine]

Just ordered a food delivery as a treat, DH ordered a lasagna and it came with cheese on top.

I would of complained as cheese does not belong on lasagna but DH loves it as says it's meant to come with melted grated cheese on top.

I disagree and think it's just meant to have the white sauce.

Should Lasagna have cheese?

YANBU = No cheese

YABU = Yes cheese

No wonder your husband was excited to finally get one with cheese on. I think they would of laughed at you if you would of complained 😂

Definitely cheese on top. The white sauce is meant to be flavoured with cheese! And some extra mozzarella slices on top for good measure.

Cheese obviously goes on lasagne🤣

This thread is going down in MN history.

"I've name changed for this but I've been here forever... Cancel the cheque, naice ham, cheeseless lasagne..."

It's the law. 4oz cheese in 2 pints of white sauce. Grated cheese sprinkled lavishly on top of the final white sauce layer. Oven at 200°c fan for 30 minutes.

I thought grated Parmesan over the bechemel sauce was standard and essential. Amazed by the small but vociferous no cheese brigade but secretly tempted by the mozzarella layers of which I was previously ignorant.

It's obviously an "English" lasagna. No it shouldn't have cheese, just a sprinkling of parmesan.

Last I checked parmesan was cheese

Oh god, I've just read other are putting cheese in the middle too..... no, just no. My Nonna is rotating in her grave.

Yes, but cheese to previous posters, means cheddar or morzarella, neither of which should be anywhere near a lasagna.

WOW, unanimous! And yes cheese on top for sure. And melted beautifully too. YUMMMMMMMMMMM!

I think that’s the american style?. Loads of american recipes use cheese (or campbells mushroom soup) instead of white sauce.

True.

That's what we had for dinner tonight! I always put grated cheddar and mozzarella on top!

Always parmesan on top.

I once lovingly made a veggie lasagne (with cheese), left it on the worktop only to find one of the cats licking the cheesy top. I'd spent ages making the bastard thing so I scraped the top layer off, added a load more cheese and didn't tell anyone. Not even sorry.

My Italian Nonna taught me how to make lasagne when I was 12. Her teaching was "when you think you've got enough cheese, add a little - more just to be sure".
Though "a little more - just to be sure" is her favourite phrase, especially when it came to feeding grandchildren.

I make lasagne with cheese on every layer.Yabvu

Cheeseless lasagne? Have we not suffered enough this year?

😆😆😆😆😆

@cherrybakewellll

My husband once out peas in a lasagne. It's the worst row we've ever had. It was borderline divorce territory.

I guess I needed that belly laugh!!!

Your husband is 2020 evil

What fresh hell is a cheese-less lasagne?!

@Bummsbet

Traditionally lasagne doesn't have cheese on no. But it's amazing with it! I put Stilton in my cheese sauce and then a good sprinkle of grated cheddar on top. Try it. Live a little!

Yes it does. Any Italian will tell you that it traditionally has always Parmagiano Reggiano on top of the Bechamel sauce

Parmesan cheese in the top ready to make nice and crispy when it’s baked - plus in my house I’d then grate fresh Parmesan on top once it’s on my plate

Imagine working in a takeaway in the UK and getting a call with someone complaining that their lasagne has cheese on top.

I hope you have learned a valuable lesson
