De Cecco Anellini n.71 (500g)

Product Information

Also known as anelli or anellini, meaning small rings, this ring shaped pasta of Sicilian origin is popular for making this baked pasta dish. This is a simpler version but really you can make your timballo based on what you have. If you don't have anelli pasta you can use other pastas - I've also seen this done with spaghetti too. It looks fantastic with rigatoni pasta and you can also use rice instead of pasta. It's the ultimate leftover meal. You don't need a bundt tin for this as you can also use a springform tin or loaf tin and layer all of the ingredients. You can use eggs or cheese to bind it (in my case I used cheese because I love cheese). Some put breadcrumbs and cheese on the outside (which is something I'm more likely to do next time over a dough). I can only imagine the crunchy delicious crust on the outside. Pour half the pasta with sauce into the eggplant covered spring form pan. Cover with hard boiled egg slices. Add the remaining pasta and top with the reserved sauce. Press down lightly on the pasta. Sprinkle 2 tbsp. Parmigiano cheese on top.

Finely chop the onion along with the carrot, celery, parsley and garlic to sauté in a pan with plenty of oil. Once the onion is translucent, add the ground meat and brown over high heat for a few minutes. Then add the red wine. Let the alcohol cook off, then add the tomato paste and tomato sauce. Add the bay leaf, season with salt and pepper and let cook over medium heat for 1 ½ hours, stirring often. The ragù should have a fluid, creamy consistency by the end of cooking. Halfway through cooking, add the peas. Do not skimp on olive oil! Eggplants are like sponges and soak up lots of oil. Make sure the eggplant slices are not dry and brush with extra oil as needed.

I like to spread the cooked anelletti onto a rimmed baking sheet so it can cool down faster, then it’s basically like making a lasagne, just have all your ingredients ready to go so you can start layering it into your baking dish. Anelletti is a pasta type that is ring shaped and in this case is baked, ( al Forno) between layers of marinara and bechamel sauce, of course there’s cheese and other goodies included like Italian sausage and peas. Well those are anelli! I recently read that not only are SpaghettiOs still being produced, but they sell over 150 million cans a year! When Campbells first launched them on the market they used the advertising tag line"The neat round spaghetti you can eat with a spoon" I just love that! Round spaghetti! Caciocavallo cheese: cut into cubes. Other cheeses such as mild provolone or mozzarella may be substitued.

If you prefer a meatless version, omit the meat and add chunks of fresh mozzarella instead, believe me it’s all good! Meanwhile, in a large, heavy-based pan, warm the oil and butter, and gently fry the onion, celery, carrot, rosemary and a pinch of salt until soft and translucent. I hope you give this timballo a go because it's a wonderful dish, perfect for family occasions and holidays. The bechamel mingles with the marinara and parmesan cheese and creates a creamy, luscious sauce that envelopes the anelletti pasta so well. Anelli, which means “little rings” in Italian, are small, thin rings of pasta that originated from Sicily, Italy. These little hoops of pasta are often found in soups and salads, particularly in light, summery dishes.This recipe is very easy to prep the day before, no stress or clean up the day you’ll be serving it. Have it ready to go as in the picture above, just cover with foil and pop it into the fridge. Anelli pasta is thought to have originated in the Italian region of Puglia, where it is still popular today. It is often served with hearty sauces and vegetables because the shape of the pasta helps hold the sauce and ingredients together. Anelli pasta is also known for its versatility, as it can be used in a variety of dishes, from soups to casseroles.

Today is Monday the 11th of October and restrictions are easing across NSW and we can now go out to eat and have people over. I'm excited to go out to eat but I don't have anything booked for a while as we were working towards the 18th of October as a reopening date. That doesn't bother me as I have really loved doing my series on small food businesses and highlighting what they do. A lot of the bigger restaurants have PR agencies to help them spread the word but smaller businesses don't often have the budget for it. PR agencies are helpful because they are the go between between the chefs / owners and the writer.Like several other Sicilian baked pasta recipes, this dish is made with a meat ragu with peas, eggplant and hardboiled eggs. Both anelli and tortellini are round, ring-shaped pastas. However, there is one key difference: tortellini is a type of stuffed pasta while anelli is not. Anelli are small, thin rings of pasta often used in brothy soups and pasta salads while tortellini is often paired with a simple sauce to elevate its filling. Although these pasta shapes aren’t interchangeable, they are both unique and delicious in their own right. Traditional Dishes Suitable for Anelli Pasta In the city of Palermo, you can also find anelletti al forno in all the classic rosticcerie (Italian specialty stores with pre-cooked dishes), where it’s usually served on small square trays like street food Anelletti al Forno by Salvatore Fraterrigo That’s when I knew it was a darn good idea that I have started to make my own. It does take 24 hours to firm up in the fridge , so just be aware that you need to plan ahead, but of course store bought Mascarpone will work fine too!
