RIGATONI AL FORNO

Steps:

• To make the sauce, heat 1 tbsp oil in a non-stick trying pan. Add the sausage and cook, breaking it up as it browns, so you have quite small pieces. Add the garlic, fennel and rosemary and cook for a couple of minutes.
• Heat the oven to 190C/fan 170C/gas 5. Add the tomatoes then simmer for 20 minutes until thickened. Cook the pasta but keep an eye on it, and stop cooking when it is a couple of minutes away from being done - you will be cooking it more in the oven so you want it to still have a bit of bite.
• Mix the pasta with the sauce and tip into a baking dish. Scatter over the mozzarella and grana padano and bake for 20-30 minutes until bubbling and golden. Serve with a salad, if you like.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°; bring a large pot of salted water to boil over high heat; cook the pasta 10-12 minutes or until al dente; drain pasta and place in a mixing bowl.
• While the pasta is cooking, in a shallow pot or skillet (stainless steel is recommended) over med-high heat, combine the cream and milk; bring to a simmer.
• Add in the garlic; stir in the Gorgonzola Dolce; when the cheese has melted, add all but 1 tablespoon of the Grana Padano, decrease the heat to medium, and cook, stirring occasionally, 10-12 minutes or until the sauce is moderately thick and creamy.
• Remove from heat and add in the oregano and pepper.
• Pour the cream sauce over the pasta; add the mozzarella and Fontina Val d'Aosta and mix well.
• The mixture should be moist and creamy; if it is too dry, add a little more milk or cream.
• Brush the bottom and sides of a 13x9 inch baking dish (preferably terra-cotta) with olive oil and pour in the pasta (which should almost entirely fill the baking dish).
• Sprinkle with the bread crumbs and the remaining Grana Padano.
• Bake on the middle shelf for 20-25 minutes or until the sauce is bubbling and the top is golden brown and crisp.
