Ingredients

• 500 g Fresh salmon fillets, skinless
• 300 g Broccoli florets
• 9 sheets Lasagna sheets
• 50 g Butter
• 50 g All-purpose flour
• 800 ml Whole milk
• 100 g Grated Parmesan cheese
• 200 g Shredded mozzarella cheese
• 1 tsp Lemon zest
• 2 tbsp Fresh dill, chopped
• 1 tsp Salt
• 0.5 tsp Black pepper
• 1 tbsp Olive oil
• 2 cloves Garlic, minced

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).

Step 2

Heat a large pot of salted water to boiling. Blanch the broccoli florets for 2–3 minutes until just tender but still bright green. Drain and set aside.

Step 3

Heat olive oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.

Step 4

Season the salmon fillets with a pinch of salt and pepper. Place them in the pan and cook for 3–4 minutes per side until just cooked through. Remove from the heat, flake the salmon into bite-sized pieces, and set aside.

Step 5

In a medium-sized saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Stir in the flour and cook for 1–2 minutes, stirring constantly, to form a roux.

Step 6

Gradually whisk in the milk, making sure no lumps form. Continue to cook the sauce, stirring frequently, until it thickens. Add 50g of the Parmesan cheese, lemon zest, and fresh dill, then season with salt and black pepper to taste.

Step 7

Spread a thin layer of the white sauce at the bottom of a 9 x 13 inch (23 x 33 cm) baking dish.

Step 8

Place 3 lasagna sheets over the sauce, followed by one-third of the broccoli, one-third of the cooked salmon, and one-third of the white sauce. Repeat this layering process two more times, finishing with white sauce on top.

Step 9

Sprinkle the remaining 50g of Parmesan cheese and all the shredded mozzarella evenly over the top layer.

Step 10

Cover the baking dish with foil and bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 20 minutes, or until the top is golden and bubbling.

Step 11

Let the lasagna rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
