Ingredients
The following ingredients have 8 Servings
- 1 1/2 pounds bucatini or other long pasta
- 1 recipe Marcella Hazan\'s Tomato Sauce (https://food52.com/recipes/13722-marcella-hazan-s-tomato-sauce-with-onion-butter)
- 12 ounces fresh mozzarella cheese, grated (as best you can, larger chunks are okay)
- 6 ounces grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/2 bunch fresh basil, roughly chopped
Instruction
- Preheat the oven to 375° F. Lightly grease a 9-inch springform pan.
- In a large pot of salted boiling water, cook the pasta until just under al dente (5 to 6 minutes). Drain well.
- In a large bowl, gently toss the pasta with the sauce to coat.
- Working strand by strand, form a spiral with the pasta in the base of the pan. Once you’ve built one layer, build another on top of it. In between every 2 to 3 layers, sprinkle a layer of mozzarella. Continue until you’ve used all the pasta and mozz.
- Top the final layer generously with the Parmesan. Bake until the top is golden and interior is heated through, 20 to 25 minutes.
- Cool for 5 to 10 minutes. Garnish with basil before slicing and serving. Leftovers can keep up to 2 days.
