20101005 Pasta Casserole

(SOURCE: Albert Heijn Recepten - Ovenpasta met gehakt en courgette)

I would recommend scattering your dish with some freshly grated parmesan too to make it prettier and cheesier.

INGREDIENTS
300g pasta, cooked and drained
2 tbsp olive oil
2 onions, finely chopped
300g minced beef
1 courgette, finely diced
450ml sugo basilico tomato sauce
3 tomatoes, sliced
two 125g mozzarella balls, sliced

METHOD
1. Heat oven to 200 degree C. Heat the oil in a pan and brown the onions for about 1 minute. Add the meat and cook for about 3 minutes, and then add the courgette and cook for another 3 minutes. Pour the sauce in the pan, and season with salt and pepper. Remove from heat.
2. Stir the pasta into the sauce and pour the mixture into a baking dish. Cover the top with sliced tomatoes and mozzarella cheese. Bake in the oven for about 20 to 25 minutes, or until top is golden.
