Then scatter over some of the cheese sauce and fresh oregano. Repeat the layers once more, making sure the final layer of ravioli is nestled into the sauce. Pour the alfredo sauce over the top to cover everything. 3 Grate the Parmigiano Reggiano over the top. 4 Bake for 20 minutes before tearing the garlic bread slices over. Finish in the oven for 15-20 minutes or until golden and bubbling. 5 Serve the lasagne scattered with fresh oregano.
