Alison Roman's Best Baked Ziti | NYT Cooking

  • This baked ziti is layered almost like a lasagna to make sure every bite has enough ricotta, mozzarella and tomato sauce. So, it's simply the best. Alison Roman swaps out classic ziti with rigatoni to get more crispy edges. It's a smart move. Get the recipe: nyti.ms/2lVfFpx

    • 1/4 cup olive oil
    • 1 medium yellow onion, finely chopped
    • 4 cloves garlic, finely chopped
    • salt and pepper
    • 2 tbsp tomato paste
    • 1 (28-ounce) can whole peeled tomatoes
    • 1 (28-ounce) can tomato purée
    • 3/4 tsp red pepper flakes
    • 16 ounces/1 lb ricotta
    • 1/2 cup heavy cream
    • 1/2 cup finely grated Parmesan or Pecorino, plus more for grating on top
    • 1 pound ziti or rigatoni
    • 1 pound fresh mozzarella, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
    Heat oil in medium heat. Add onion, garlic, salt, pepper & cook until onion is translucent (not brown, 8 min). Add tomato paste & cook until it turns oil orange (2 min). Crush whole tomatoes by hand & add to pot and add the tomato puree. Season with salt, pepper, chili flakes. Scrape bottom of pot to loosen bits stuck. Bring to simmer and cook (stirring occasionally) until sauce has thickened, 20-30 min.
    In bowl combine ricotta, heavy cream, 1/2 cup Parmesan, salt & pep.
    Set aside. Boil pasta. Remove pasta when it is 2 minutes shy of being fully cooked. Drain pasta, adding 1 cup pasta water to tomato sauce.
    Add 2 cups sauce to pasta to evenly coat. Layer tomato sauce into baking dish. Layer dish accordingly: pasta, sauce, 1/2 ricotta mixture, mozzarella, sauce. Repeat. Bake on rimmed baking sheet for 35 mins at 350 degrees.

      what? that dish is crazy fattening as it is with all that cheese. I couldn't believe anyone would cook something that fattening. if all you can think of is portion size watching this, you're on your way to obese, never mind the abs.

    I’ve been wanting to make this ever since I saw this video and I finally made it tonight. I used penne and I was skeptical about a pound being enough pasta, but honestly with the amount of cheese you put in this dish you will be set for dinner for nearly a week lol. It still tasted amazing, but don’t skimp on any sauce either-use all of it!

    Love this video - I really like that she showed me how to make a marina sauce from scratch (something that I had been wanting to learn). The cook/host has a lot of personality, and when she engages with the crew behind the scene, I felt like I was there with them. When she shared why she used the pasta I thought it was a great personal share!!

    I just made it for Christmas Eve and it came out great!! (I did add some ground beef and some Italian seasoning in the sauce other than that I followed the recipe. I saw somewhere in the comments that the recipe on NY Times says to bake it at 425 so I did that for around 30 mins covered and 5 mins uncovered and added an extra 2mins with the broiler on to brown the cheese.)

    I made this last night and it was wonderful. Alison Roman you are my new favourite chef. I learnt so much from this video, like how much oil to use when frying onions (I’d never used so much before but it worked great) salting the onions as they fry, frying the tomato paste in the oil, adding four big punches of salt to my pasta water, not over cooking the pasta. Each little tip from you that I followed contributed to the best pasta bake I’ve ever made. Thank you on behalf of me and everyone I will feed this to.

    its the little touches i enjoyed- adding the pasta water to the sauce to keep its sauciness when it gets to the oven, choosing the right ricotta, the al al dente, keeping the sauce simple, rigatoni instead of ziti, crushing the tomatoes by hand- that make this fun to watch. sometimes when yr making food for lots of people you forget some of these small steps that really make the dish that much more enjoyable.

    I've made this a couple times now and it's delicious and always a hit. I have also "cheated" and used store-bought sauce but the nice sauce in the fresh/deli section. (I live in an apartment even smaller than hers so I have to save a dish where I can!!)
