Ingredients
Method
Techniques
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- onions
- celery
- potatoes
Add about two tablespoons of olive oil to the pot with the chopped onions and celery; no garlic. Cook the aromatics a couple of minutes, neither caramelized nor too translucent.
- ½ cup tomato sauce
Add about half a cup of tomato sauce and cook a minute.
Add the potatoes, peeled, cut into bite-sized pieces and kept in water so they do not brown; mix.
- water
Add water as much as needed and cook half an hour to 45 minutes until the potatoes are very tender.
Mixed pasta, and water quanto basta
- mixed short pasta (pasta mista)
- pepper
- smoked matz
With everything at a boil, add the mixed pasta and cook only about half its time, another five to seven minutes, since it finishes in the oven. Add a little pepper if wanted.
- salt
- parm
- Italian seasoned panko
Transfer to a ceramic baking dish (no need to grease ceramic; butter or oil another dish).
Assembling in the baking dish
Top with the smoked cheese, then the parm and Italian seasoned panko, and a little olive oil.
