Pasta Pie Recipe - Cooking Index
| 1 | Spaghetti sauce - (16 oz) | |
| 1 lb | 454g / 16oz | Cooked capellini - (very thin spaghetti) |
| 2 tablespoons | 30ml | Olive oil |
| 1/2 lb | 227g / 8oz | Whole-milk mozzarella - sliced thin |
| 16 | Pepperoni - (thin slices) | |
| Fresh basil sprigs - for garnish |
In a medium saucepan, heat the spaghetti sauce.
In a non-stick skillet measuring 12 inches across the bottom, heat the oil over moderate heat until it is hot but not smoking. To the skillet add the capellini, distributing it evenly and pressing it lightly. Cook it, covered, over moderate heat for 25 minutes, or until the bottom is golden. Invert an oiled baking sheet over the skillet, invert the capellini "crust" onto the sheet, and slide it back into the skillet. Cook the capellini crust, covered, for 10 minutes more, spread the sauce over it, leaving a 1/2-inch border, and arrange the mozzarella on top. Arrange the pepperoni on the mozzarella and cook the "pizza", covered, over moderate heat for 3 minutes, or until the mozzarella is melted.
Slide the pizza onto a pizza pan or flat platter. Garnish it with the basil. With a pizza wheel or sharp knife cut it into wedges.
This recipe yields 4 servings.
