Ingredients
  • Baked Ziti
  • Salt and pepper
  • 1 pound Italian sausage, preferably bulk or ground meat of any
  • type, or a combination
  • 1 large onion, diced
  • 1 tablespoon minced garlic, optional
  • 1 (28-ounce can) tomatoes, chopped, with liquid
  • 1 pound ziti or other large cut pasta
  • 1 pound mozzarella, grated or chopped
  • Olive oil or butter as needed
  • 1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan, optional
  • 1. Bring large pot of water to boil; salt it. Heat oven to 400F.
  • 2. Distribute meat in large skillet over medium high heat and cook,
  • undisturbed, until browned on one side, about 5 minutes. Stir,
  • cook another 2 minutes undisturbed, then add the onion and
  • garlic, if using. Lower heat to medium and continue to cook,
  • stirring occasionally, until vegetables are soft; add tomatoes
  • and bring to a boil. Simmer while cooking pasta, stirring and
  • seasoning with salt and pepper to taste; do not let sauce become
  • too thick.
  • 3. Cook pasta until just tender; it should still be too hard to
  • eat. Drain it (do not shake the colander; allow some water to
  • cling to the noodles) and toss it with the sauce and half the
  • mozzarella. Grease a 9-by-13-inch baking dish and spoon mixture
  • into it. Top with remaining mozzarella and the Parmesan if
  • using. Bake until top is browned and cheese bubbly, 20 to 30
  • minutes.
