If you can find them here expect to pay between £35 - £40, I read a fishing forum that said Blacks had them. Before you commit any cash though do a search on here as there's advice on how to use them. Like lining them completely with tinfoil as heat escapes through the edges. Not everybody rates them but they work best on the 424, there's a surprise lol.
If you have to have your lasagne...

Anyway, dutch ovens have 3 wee feet... made for camp fires not stoves.
Anyway, cooking tip. For those people who miss chips, I find if you get frozen potato wedges you can cook them in a frying pan with just a tiny bit of oil.. keep turning and they crisp up, not quite chips but a good backup. Dry fry shop bought nan bread in a non stick fry pan works well to go with a curry.

Thanks Christine , it's not just Lasagne, I occasionally bake cakes too, honest.
I'm pretty handy with modifying these things, if it's double skinned I would attempt to use some insulation from an old household oven to keep heat in, I can usually make these things work. (my solar fridge is still in the testing stages tho, that's a slow mover that one)
I've come across 3 different designs that all claim to be dutch ovens, not sure how well any of them work, & none of them are what you might call "compact".

Jeez, just get a small Igloo Maxcold and blag some ice ( pub or wherever ) it'll keep stuff cold for 5 days.
That's my plan (I was keeping it quiet tho). I'm probably going to buy one in France, as they may well be cheaper, & I may just go without completely, lots of sites list fridge facilities & I don't use that many perishables.
Another stove top oven is the Omnia, looks a bit like a cake tin with a lid on it, but you can make baked potatoes, cakes lasagne etc, just that they will coem out circular with a hole in the middle.
Omnia Oven , some new ones on Ebay.

We've never had EHU, but as we are now awaiting delivery of a Leisuredrive VW T5, we'll be getting EHU in future. At home we have a Remoska cooker and intend to take it camping. They are expensive new, ours came from a house clearance, but you might find one cheaper secondhand.
