Method

  • Start by melting the butter in a pan, add the flour and cook for 1 minute on a low heat. Gradually add milk and whisk to a smooth consistency. Season and keep stirring.

  • divide sauce into 2 pans. To 1 pan add the stilton and stir in until melted. Steam or cook washed water cress in another pan with small amount of water.

  • Once the water cress is cooked, drain and chop finely. Add to stilton sauce. Stir until well mixed.

  • Cook the 8 slices of bacon in a frying pan until cooked.

  • If not using fresh lasagne sheets then I recommend cooking individual sheets for a few minutes in boiling water as they will be still hard if put straight into dish.

  • add some stilton and watercress sauce to the bottom of a lasagne dish. Layer lasagne sheets and repeat layers. Pour over remaining white sauce from second pan.

  • sprinkle over parmesan cheese and chop up bacon into strips. cook for 20 minutes until top is crispy .

  • serve with a mixed green salad.
