Jackfruit Lasagne – Vegan or Vegetarian

This recipe, given to me by a friend, can be vegan or vegetarian, depending on which version of a cheese sauce you choose to make.

Jackfruit Lasagne

For this one, for veggie friends, I made a conventional cheese sauce, a butter and flour roux with milk added to make the right consistency, adding whichever grated cheese you choose.

To make a Vegan Cheese Sauce, as I did for our daughter, follow the next recipe.

150g cashew nuts, soaked in water for 4 hours then drained

How to do it
