Categories     Main Course

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 17

2-1/2 cups uncooked radiatore pasta
4 dashes salt
Water
2 whole Italian sausages ((or apprx. 6 ounces of bulk Italian sausage))
1 can (15 ounces) tomato sauce
15 ounces water (filled in the empty tomato sauce can)
1 can (14.5 ounces) diced tomatoes
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 cup chopped onion
4 cloves garlic (peeled and chopped)
1/4 cup chopped fresh Italian parsley (for the sauce)
2 teaspoons dried oregano leaves
1/2 teaspoon dried red pepper flakes (or to taste)
1/3 teaspoon salt (or to taste)
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese (for garnish)
2 tablespoons chopped fresh Italian parsley (for garnish)

Steps:

  • In a medium size pot, add hot water. Heat the pot on medium heat. Bring to a boil and add the salt.
  • Add pasta to the pot and stir. Cook the pasta until its al-dente (according to package instructions). Drain the pasta (don't rinse the pasta) and set aside.
  • Don't rinse the pasta after cooking it. When pasta is rinsed, the starch is removed. The starch on pasta helps to hold and absorb the sauce so it's important to keep the starch on the pasta.
  • While the pasta is cooking, chop the onions, garlic and parsley. Set them aside.
  • In a large shallow pot or sauté pan (with high sides), add the sausage. If the sausage is in a casing, make a small cut on one of the ends, squeeze the meat out, and discard the casing.
  • Stir and using a spatula, break apart the sausage into small pieces as it cooks.
  • When the sausage starts to brown, add the onions, garlic and olive oil. Stir. Continue to stir while cooking for about 3 minutes or until the onions start to turn translucent.
  • In a small bowl, add the canned diced tomatoes. With clean hands squeeze the tomatoes so there are no big chunks, and add them to the pan.
  • Add the tomato sauce to the pan. Fill the empty tomato sauce can with water and add the water to the pan. Stir the sauce.
  • Add parsley, oregano, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper. Stir. Turn the heat down to low and let the sauce simmer (uncovered) for about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Add the pasta to the sauce. Gently stir the pasta into the sauce. Top with grated Parmesan cheese and parsley and serve while warm.

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h20m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 pound rigatoni
1 onion, finely diced
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 1/2 pounds Italian sausage
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
Two 25-ounce jars marinara sauce
Two 8-ounce balls fresh mozzarella, cut into large cubes
1/2 cup grated Parmesan
Minced fresh parsley, for garnish

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Cook the rigatoni according to the package instructions; drain and set aside to cool.
  • Saute the onions in the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat until golden, 3 to 4 minutes. Crumble in the sausage, add the crushed red pepper and cook for a couple of minutes. Add the marinara sauce, mix everything together and cook for 5 to 7 minutes. Set aside to cool.
  • To assemble, add about 2 spoonfuls of the sauce--just enough to coat the bottom--to a baking dish. Then layer half of the cooled noodles, half of the mozzarella cubes and half of the remaining sauce. Repeat the process: layer the remaining noodles, mozzarella and sauce, then top with the Parmesan. Cover and put in the fridge or freezer until ready to cook.
  • When ready to cook, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Cook the rigatoni until heated through and bubbling, 25 minutes straight from the fridge, or 2 hours straight from the freezer. Garnish with minced parsley before serving.
