Fry the onions in the olive oil in a large pan over a low heat, until soft and without colour. Add garlic and cook until fragrant.
Pour the water into the pan and bring to the boil, then add the minced beef to the pan and break the meat down with a whisk or wooden spoon to remove large lumps.
Bring to the boil and skim any excess fat from the surface. Add the oregano and beef fonds.
Continue to cook until the water has completely evaporated and the meat is tender.
Add the tomato sauce, stir, and simmer for 10 minutes. Mix the basil into
the sauce and season to taste.
Cover the base of a deep roasting tin with quarter of the meat sauce and cover with a layer of lasagne sheets. Repeat the process, adding more sauce and lasagne sheets. Ensure to finish with a layer of lasagne sheets.
Whisk the béchamel powder with 125ml cold water in a bowl until smooth. Place the remaining water into a sauce pan and bring to the boil.
Whisk the sauce mixture into the boiling water and simmer for 3 minutes, then add the grated cheeses.
