- 250 grams of pasta preferably whole wheat
- 500 grams of minced meat
- 2 tablespoons olive or sesame oil
- ½ onion chopped
- 1 teaspoon garlic minced
- 1 packet of cheese sauce
- Cheese as needed grated
- Salt and pepper to taste
Fill a pot with water and bring to a boil. Sprinkle a pinch of salt in water and toss is the pasta.
While the pasta cooks, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a pan. Sauté the onions and garlic for 5 minutes. Add minced meat and seasoning, and cook until brown and soft. Remove from heat.
When the pasta is cooked but still slightly undercooked, remove from heat and drain the water. Wait for it to cool. Layer the bottom of a casserole dish with the al dente pasta. Add the meat and pat the surface with a spatula to make sure it is level.
Pour the cheese sauce on top of the meat and level with a spoon. Finally, sprinkle the grated cheese, making sure the top is fully covered.
Bake in 360F until the cheese on top turns golden brown. Serve.
