Step-by-Step Method

10-step method

Bake and prepare

Preheat oven to 190°C. Fill a large pot with water for the pasta and put it on the stove; We will prepare the sauce until the water boils.

Sauté vegetables

Heat the oil in a large pan. Sauté the onion and green pepper for 4–5 minutes until softened. Add the garlic and stir for 30–60 seconds until fragrant.

Cook mushrooms

Add sliced mushrooms. Cook for 3–4 minutes until the water is released and absorbed; so that the sauce does not become watery.

Fry ground meat and sausage

Add the minced meat and crumbled sausage to the pan. Cook until it changes color and crumbles well. If there is excess oil, you can remove it with a spoon.

Add tomato paste and tomato sauce

Add tomato paste and fry for 1 minute. Then pour the tomato sauce; Add thyme, basil and bay leaf.

Season and condition

Add soy sauce, black pepper and salt. Boil the sauce gently over low-medium heat for 10–15 minutes; It is enough to have the consistency to cover the spoon. Remove the bay leaves.

Boil ziti pasta

Salt the boiling water. Boil the ziti until al dente, 1–2 minutes less than the package time. Strain, reserve 1/2 cup of boiling water if you wish.

Combine pasta with sauce

Add the boiled pasta to the sauce and mix. If the sauce is too thick, dilute it by adding a little bit of the reserved boiling water.

Layer and cheese

Spread half of the mixture on the bottom of the baking dish. Sprinkle half the mozzarella cheese on top. Add remaining pasta; Spread the remaining mozzarella and parmesan cheese on top.

Bake and rest

Bake for 25–30 minutes, until the cheese melts and the top is lightly browned. Rest for 10 minutes; Then slice and serve.
