TSB shakes up the market with significant mortgage rate hikes, causing turmoil in the UK financial sector

Michelin chef Ollie Bridgwater has shared his secret tip for creating an amazing lasagne that will elevate your dish to the next level. The executive chef at the one-starred SOURCE at Gilpin Hotel in Cumbria revealed that the key to enhancing the taste of lasagne without any additional cost is to fry half of the meat until it’s dark brown and catching, then add in the other half of meat until it is lightly browned. This technique adds richness and texture to the dish.

For those looking to indulge a little, Bridgwater suggests adding Dijon mustard, sherry vinegar, and truffle to the béchamel sauce to enhance the flavor. However, he advises against using expensive ingredients like wine, as good quality meat and proper seasoning should be enough to create a delicious lasagne.

In addition to sharing his lasagne tips, Bridgwater also recommended some of his favorite affordable dining spots in Cumbria. Homeground in Windermere offers a variety of sweet and savory brunch options, while Toast serves delicious toasted sandwiches in Japanese milk loaf bread. The Brown Horse Inn in Winster is a family-owned pub that celebrates local produce and offers a warm welcome to all guests.
