Everyone knows and loves a lasagna, but on a daily basis Italians prefer baked pasta dishes like this one we are sharing today. Whether you are feeling like having an extra indulgent family style pasta on a Tuesday, or want to do something quicker than a lasagna on a Sunday this recipe is a great one to try.
Let’s make it together.
Serves two people
250 gr small meatballs (you can buy them ready or make them yourself)
Belmorso Tomato & Chilli Sauce or Belmorso Tomato & Basil (depending on whether you like it spicy or not)
A large handful of grated parmesan cheese
A few slices of regular or smoked Scamorza cheese
Start by cooking the pasta half way through, as it will finish cooking in the oven.
Drain it and dress it with the tomato sauce of your choice. Mix well.
Take a baking dish and layer the pasta.
Top with the small meatballs, the slices of scamorza cheese, and the grated parmesan.
You can do just one layer, or two, whichever you prefer.
Bake the pasta in a preheated overn at 250 degrees Celsius. Place it at the top of the oven so it gets slightly crusty on top. But if you prefer a softer surface, place it at the bottom of the oven and lower the temperature slightly.
Take out of the oven, let it cool shortly, and serve it.
Enjoy.
