Timballo Di Anelletti

Timballo di Anelletti is a traditional Sicilian pasta pie, filled with meat sauce, peas, and cheese, then baked to perfection.

Ingredients - Serves 8

Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F).
In a large pan, heat the olive oil and sauté the chopped onion until translucent.
Add the ground beef to the pan and cook until browned.
Add the tomato sauce, peas, salt, and pepper. Simmer for 30 minutes.
In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook the anelletti pasta until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a large bowl, mix together the cooked pasta, meat sauce, diced mozzarella, Parmesan cheese, and eggs.
Grease a bundt pan and dust with breadcrumbs.
Pour the pasta mixture into the bundt pan, pressing down to ensure it's packed tightly.
Bake for 30 minutes, or until the top is golden and crispy.
Let the timballo cool for a few minutes before flipping it out onto a serving plate.
