Quorn Pastitsio
Babs and I have had many a pastitsio in our time and we really
wanted to recreate it similar to one we had in Cyprus.
Instead of minced beef we used our Quorn mince which helped the
dish stay lovely and light. We browned it off with onions, seasoning
and freshly grated cinnamon before adding passata and letting
it simmer gently.
 
We also cooked large penne pasta as per instructions. We made
a béchamel sauce (see our ). We put half the pasta into into a baking tray, added
the mince, then the rest of the pasta before pouring over the
béchamel sauce and sprinkling grated halloumi cheese and
more cinnamon.
 
Then baked in the oven for 30 mins. Yummy and light pastitsio
which evoked memories of balmy Greek nights.
