Add another lasagne sheet, and then spread with half the mozzarella and half the crème fraiche. Continue to layer lasagne sheets and remaining sauce, and finish with a layer of mozzarella cheese, crème fraiche and sprinkle with Manchego cheese.
  6. Bake for 45 minutes or until the lasagne is bubbling and the top is golden brown.
