Just wait tell you try this..

Provided by Butch Fertic

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 lb rigatoni
2 Tbsp olive oil, divided
1 lb ground beef (i used ground sirloin)
2 clove garlic cloves, crushed
1/4 tsp freshly ground pepper
1 oz 28 ounces good quality crushed tomatoes
butter, for pan
pinch salt
1 c parmesan cheese, finely grated
8 oz coarsely grated mozzarella cheese

Steps:

  • 1. In a large pot of salted boiling water, cook pasta until slightly underdone (I cooked mine for 12 minutes when the box indicated 14 minutes). One pound of pasta should be cooked in 6 quarts of water, make sure you are using a big enough pot so the pasta doesn't stick together. When done, rinse in cold water and drain again. Toss pasta with 1 Tablespoon olive oil to coat. Set aside.
  • 2. Heat remaining 1 Tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add ground beef. Cook, stirring occasionally until browned. Add garlic, 1 teaspoon salt and pepper. Cook 2 minutes more.
  • 3. Add crushed tomatoes; simmer until thickened, about 20 minutes.
  • 4. Toss pasta with Parmesan cheese. Butter a 9-inch spring-form pan. Tightly pack pasta into pan, standing each piece on end. Spread meat sauce on top of pasta.
  • 5. Push the meat sauce into the pasta holes filling each one up. Stuffing the meat into the holes is a weirdly satisfying task. Enough said.
  • 6. Place in a 400 degree oven for 15 minutes. Sprinkle mozzarella cheese on top and bake another 10-15 minutes until cheese is golden. Remove from oven and let stand for 15 minutes. Run a knife around the edge to loosen and then unmold.
  • 7. Cut into wedges and serve with any remaining meat sauce you might have.

I'm not sure if I did something wrong, but my pasta pie didn't come out looking like the picture.

This pasta pie is a bit too heavy for my taste. I would have preferred a lighter filling.

This pasta pie is a great way to use up leftover pasta. It's also a great dish to make ahead of time.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my pasta pie didn't turn out well. The crust was too hard and the filling was too runny.

I was disappointed with this pasta pie. The crust was too soggy and the filling was bland.

The pasta pie turned out great! I used a store-bought pie crust to save time, and it still came out delicious.

This pasta pie was a hit with my family! The flavors were amazing and the crust was perfectly flaky. I'll definitely be making this again.
