Penne pasticciate

Literally “messy penne”. You can even call it Pasta al forno, pasta in the oven, but messy penne is funnier!
It’s something very simple to make. You cook you penne (organic, of course!) until 2 minutes from the given time on the package. You dress them with a sauce of you choice (I’ve used Sugo alla ligure: plenty of wonderful fresh aromas), then you add some diced mozzarella, some creamy cheese, like ricotta, you lie everything in a oven proof dish, you sparkle with grated parmesan and you let it golden in the hot oven, for like 10 minutes.
It’s something you can even do the night before and give the final 10 minute sin the oven the next day, before your guests arrive…
It’s a very versatile dish, but do not over do it: simple is better, sometimes!
