Using a large pan or wok, fry asparagus stalks, onion and garlic in margarine and oil for 10 mins until asparagus is tender. Cook peas and beans in separate pan until tender. Put lasagne sheets in a large heatproof bowl of boiled water to soften. Add flour to asparagus pan and cook for 5 mins.
Gradually add stock and milk to asparagus pan, stirring to make a cream sauce. Chop spinach and add to pan, with peas and beans and cook for a few minutes until spinach has wilted.
