Rolled Beef Lasagna


My two sons enjoyed my previous Spinach Lasagna so much that they requested a Lasagna menu again too soon. Although I enjoyed the previous Lasagna as much as the kids did, the idea of repeating the same menu within a week is not so appealing. In order not to disappoint them, I proceed with lasagna menu but giving it a different filling this time. Not only varying the filling, I also took a challenge from the recipe shared by KakFida to handmade the lasagna skin. 
The final outcome was ok  but am a bit disappointed with my lasagna outcome... It turned out like a flat layers of lasagna instead of rolls....! It seems like the rolls were soaked in too much sauce. See the link below (the original recipe owner) on how it supposed to look like.
