Pretty Easter Pasta Pie (Crostata di tagliolini ) image

Provided by Francine Segan

Categories     Easter     Mozzarella     Prosciutto

Yield Makes 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

olive oil
1 small onion, minced
2 ounces pancetta or prosciutto, minced
8 ounces baby peas
salt
12 ounces fresh mushrooms, any type, thinly sliced
1 garlic clove, minced
1/4 cup homemade breadcrumbs, toasted
7 tablespoons butter
1/4 cup all-purpose or "0" flour
2 cups milk, warmed
1 pound tagliolini, or other fresh thin egg noodles
1/2 cup chicken or beef stock
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
12 ounces burrata or mozzarella cheese, diced
8 ounces thinly sliced ham, cut into strips

Steps:

  • In a small sauté pan, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium-high heat. Cook the onion and pancetta until the onion is softened, about 5 minutes. Add the peas and a few tablespoons of water, and cook until the peas are tender, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper; set aside in a bowl.
  • In the same pan, heat 2 more tablespoons oil over high heat. Cook the mushrooms and garlic for a minute or two, until tender. Season with salt and pepper; set aside.
  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Butter an 8- to 9-inch (20- to 23-cm) nonstick springform pan and dust it with breadcrumbs.
  • In another small pot, make béchamel: Melt 4 tablespoons of the butter over medium heat, stir in the flour, and cook, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, until smooth. Add the milk and bring it to a boil, stirring until thick, about 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
  • Boil the pasta in salted water for 3 minutes less than the package directs. Drain and toss with the stock.
  • Layer the bottom of the prepared baking pan with one third of the pasta. Dot with one third of the béchamel, sprinkle it with 2 to 3 heaping tablespoons Parmesan, scatter on all of the pea mixture, then scatter on one third of the diced cheese. Spread out a second level layer of pasta, dot with one third of the béchamel, sprinkle with 2 to 3 heaping tablespoons Parmesan, and scatter on all the mushrooms, ham, and remaining diced cheese. Top with the remaining pasta and any unabsorbed remaining stock, pressing down to compact the layers. Dot the top with the remaining béchamel, Parmesan, breadcrumbs, and remaining butter, very thinly sliced.
  • Bake for about 25 minutes, until the pie is set and golden. Let it rest until it comes to room temperature before slicing.

EGG FREE - SPAGHETTI PIE (BAKED PASTA)



Egg Free - Spaghetti Pie (Baked Pasta) image

I have a severe egg allergy (my face blows up like a pumpkin). I came up with this recipe as I wanted to share a Spaghetti Pie with my family and eat it too! Use your own spaghetti sauce recipe OR a bottle, just remember to add 1/2 a cup of the spaghetti water to the "cheese sauce" so it spreads well, I use a ground parmesan cheese as it was easier to measure. Turkey mince would work well here too.

BAKED CHICKEN POT PIE PASTA



Baked Chicken Pot Pie Pasta image

Chicken pot pie takes on an Italian twist in this reinvention of the classic casserole! Italian-seasoned chicken, carrots, celery and peas surrounded by a creamy sauce with mozzarella and Parmesan cheese topped with flaky circles of pie crust. Instead of potatoes there's elbow macaroni and lots of them. One look at that golden brown crust with the creamy pasta peeking through from beneath will totally draw you in hook, line and sinker. This recipe came from Cinnamon Spice & Everything Nice.

PASTA, RICOTTA AND BEET-GREEN PIE



Pasta, Ricotta and Beet-Green Pie image

Provided by Molly O'Neill

Categories     dinner, pastas, main course

Time 2h40m

Yield Six servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1/2 cup water
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
About 3 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
2 cups beet greens, tough stems removed, washed well
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1/2 large onion, peeled and chopped
28 ounces whole-milk ricotta
3 eggs
1 tablespoon chopped fresh marjoram
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
Freshly ground pepper to taste
5 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • To make the pasta, combine the water and olive oil in a large bowl. Gradually stir in the salt and enough flour to make a soft, pliable dough. Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface until smooth. Shape it into a ball, cover with a damp towel and let rest for 1 hour.
  • Meanwhile, to make the filling, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the beet greens and blanch until tender, about 4 to 5 minutes. Drain well, squeeze dry and chop coarsely.
  • Melt the butter in a large skillet, add the onion and saute until soft, about 3 minutes. Add the beet greens and saute for 3 minutes more. Let cool. In a large bowl, whisk together the ricotta, eggs, marjoram, salt and pepper. Stir in the beet green mixture. Set aside.
  • Divide the dough into 4 pieces, making 2 pieces slightly larger than the others. On a lightly floured surface, roll and stretch the larger pieces into rectangles about 12 1/2 by 7 1/2 inches and the smaller ones into rectangles about 11 by 6 inches, keeping the unused portions wrapped in a damp towel while you work.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Brush an 11 3/4-by-7 1/2-by-1 3/4-inch glass baking dish with 1 teaspoon of olive oil. Place 1 of the larger rectangles in the bottom of the dish and brush with 1 teaspoon of olive oil. Spread 1/3 of the ricotta filling over the dough, leaving a 3/4-inch border. Sprinkle with 1/4 cup of Parmesan. Top with 1 of the smaller rectangles, brush with 1 teaspoon of olive oil, spread with 1/3 of the ricotta filling and sprinkle with 1/4 cup of Parmesan.
  • Repeat with the remaining small rectangle, 1 teaspoon of olive oil, the remaining ricotta filling and 1/4 cup of Parmesan. Top with the remaining pasta sheet and press the bottom sheet and the top sheet together, folding them over to form a rim. Brush with the remaining teaspoon of olive oil.
  • Bake for 45 minutes. Cover with aluminum foil and continue baking until the pasta is tender throughout, about 15 minutes longer. Preheat the broiler. Uncover the dish and sprinkle with the remaining 1/4 cup of Parmesan. Broil until the cheese is browned, about 1 minute. Cut into squares and serve.

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.

Tips:

  • To ensure a flaky and delicious crust, use high-quality butter and make sure it is very cold when you add it to the flour. You can also use a food processor to make the crust, which will help to keep the butter cold and evenly distributed.
  • When rolling out the dough, be sure to do so on a lightly floured surface. This will help to prevent the dough from sticking and tearing.
  • If you are using a frozen pasta sheet, be sure to thaw it completely before using it. This will help to prevent the pasta from becoming soggy.
  • When filling the pie, be sure to use a variety of ingredients to create a flavorful and interesting dish. You can use any type of pasta, vegetables, meat, or cheese that you like.
  • To prevent the pasta from drying out, be sure to add some liquid to the filling. This can be in the form of a sauce, broth, or even just some water.
  • Bake the pasta pie until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly. This will usually take about 30-40 minutes.
  • Let the pasta pie cool for a few minutes before serving. This will help the filling to set and make it easier to slice.

Conclusion:

Pasta pie is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. It is a great way to use up leftover pasta, and it can also be a creative way to get your children to eat their vegetables! With so many different variations to choose from, there is sure to be a pasta pie recipe that everyone will love.
