Easy baked pasta: step by step
Peel and wash an onion, chop and brown in olive oil.
Add the tomato puree, salt and let it go on low heat for 20-25 minutes.
Meanwhile, cook the pasta “al dente”.
Cut the mozzarella into cubes, you can use one for pizza of excellent quality (the economic one is not good) or a classic one but you will have to crumble and leave it to drain for a couple of hours in the fridge.
Season the pasta with the tomato sauce you have prepared, add 2/3 of the mozzarella and stir.
Pour half of the dough on a baking dish, add a few cubes of mozzarella, cover with the remaining pasta, sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and add a few more cubes of mozzarella.
Put in the oven for about 10-15 minutes, or for the time necessary to obtain a uniform browning.
Bake, let cool and bring to the table still streaking.
