about 45 ml.
3. Press crust into a greased pie dish,and put in the fridge until needed.
4. Blend all pie ingredients in a food processor until smooth.
5. Pour over the prepared crust.
6. Put the pie in the oven and immediately turn the oven down to 190 degrees.
Bake for 15 minutes.
7. After 15 minutes, turn the oven down to 150 degrees. (This cooks the crust, so it is not soggy, but then allows the custard to bake more slowly.)

Start layering the lasagna dish with the mince mixture as the 1st layer
2nd layer with courgette slices
3rd layer, pour ricotta cheese sauce thinly over the courgette slices
4th layer, sprinkle grated mozzarella cheese over the ricotta sauce
