Ingredients

How to make it

  • Preheat oven to 350°F
  • Cook spaghetti until almost al dente (be careful not to overcook - it will cook more when it bakes; it should still be a little white in the middle when you put it in the oven).
  • In a medium skillet, heat oil, add onions, and saute until soft. Add garlic, and cook about a minute more. Add tomatoes, and cook about a minute or two. Add crushed tomatoes, and cook until sauce begins to simmer. Add cream, and cook until sauce begins to simmer. Add oregano, salt, and pepper, and simmer 5 minutes. Taste, and adjust seasonings - sauce should have a good, full flavor that won't be overwhelmed by the pasta.
  • Lightly oil a 9x9 baking dish, and add spaghetti. Pour sauce over spaghetti. Arrange basil leaves so that they cover the top. Sprinkle smoked mozzarella over the basil leaves.
  • Bake for about 10-15 minutes, until cheese is completely melted and a little bubbly.

    After reading this recipe you gave me the idea to clean out my fridge and make this wonderful dish. I made it exactly like your recipe says except I added zucchini and I had smoked gouda but no smoked mozzarella. Awesome is all I can say. Thanks for sharing and thanks for making me clean out my fridge.
