Step 1
Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a non-stick pan. Pinch small nuggets of sausage into the pan then cook until browned. Add the garlic and cook for a minute then add the fennel and chilli flakes and cook for another minute. Add the tomatoes and wine then simmer for 20 minutes. Stir in the basil.

Step 2
Heat the oven to 190C/fan 170C/gas 5. To assemble the lasagne, put a thin layer of sauce on the bottom of a large rectangular baking dish.

Step 3
Add a layer of lasagne, ⅓ of the sausage sauce and ¼ mozzarella in that order. Repeat twice then finish with a layer of lasagne. Spoon over the last bit of tomato sauce to cover then add the last layer of mozzarella and a handful of parmesan. Bake for 40 minutes until bubbling and golden (cover loosely with a sheet of foil if it starts to brown too much).
