A taste of things to come...

To encourage your contributions to the CBC cookbook, every fortnight we will provide you with a tasty recipe from the CBC community that your boys are bound to love.

Pasta al Forno from Domenic Burgio This is a dish my mum used to prepare for every major occasion, or as a special treat.

It can be made as rich, or spicy as one wishes, simply by adding more dried meats or chili.

Makes enough for a 40cm x 40 cm baking tray – a single serve is about 10cm x 10cm.

Ingredients 150-250g diced coppa (1 slice) 1 cacciatore sausage (as spicy as you like) 200-300g ham (1 slice) 100-200g prosciutto di Parma (1 slice) 150-200g provolone piccante 6 eggs 200g grated Parmegiano Reggiano 1.5 kg premium beef mince 5 bottles homemade tomato sauce (can use generic brands – about 3-4 litres) 1 large clove garlic, sliced Extra virgin olive oil – enough to fry the garlic 1.0 kg rigatoni 200g shredded mozzarella Method Making the mixture My mum used to dice the meats into 1cm cubes, but with modern technology, my dad likes to mince the meats and provolone. This requires you to buy them in a single slice.

Once all the meats and provolone are put through the mincer try and work the mixture by hand so that all the ingredients are evenly spread. If you are dicing the ingredients, keep them separate until you spread them on each layer.

Separate the egg yellow from the whites. Cook the yolks and add to the mixture.

Add half of the grated Parmigiano Reggiano.

Page 12 | CBC Fremantle Newsletter | Week 7 Term 2

To prepare the ragu In a large pot lightly sauté the sliced garlic.

Add the beef mince, and fry it until the moisture dissipates, stirring continually so it doesn’t stick.

Once the mince appears dry, add the tomato sauce.

Cook slowly for about an hour, and add some basil for taste.

Once the ragu sauce is ready, pre-heat the oven to 180 degrees.

Putting it all together Cook the rigatoni until a little al’dente – the pasta will cook more in the oven.

Beat the egg whites until very stiff, this will be the topping of the pasta.

Drain the rigatoni and layer the bottom of a 40cm x 40cm baking tray with the ragu, just enough to cover the base.

Add a layer of rigatoni, and then a layer of the mixture of meats, provolone, grated Parmigiano and eggs. This is followed by a layer of mozzarella.

Repeat the process, layering in order the ragu, rigatoni, mixture and mozzarella until the baking tray is full.

Finish with a layer of ragu, as well as the rest of the grated Parmigiano.

Spread the stiff egg whites evenly over the dish.

Bake for about 25 minutes until the egg whites turn a golden brown.

Remove from oven and leave for about 15-20 minutes as the cooling mozzarella will bind the other ingredients.

Enjoy!
