Baked Ziti

Cook the pasta in a large pot of salted boiling water for 2 minutes less than the packet instructions, then drain, reserving a cup of the pasta water.

Heat the olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat and cook the onion for 5 minutes until softened.

Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute, then stir in the chopped tomatoes, dried oregano, salt and black pepper and simmer for 12 minutes.

Stir the ricotta, half the mozzarella and the torn basil through the drained pasta, loosening with a splash of the reserved pasta water.

Fold the pasta through the tomato sauce until evenly coated, then transfer to a large baking dish.

Scatter the remaining mozzarella and the parmesan over the top and bake at 200°C for 20 minutes until golden and bubbling.

Rest for 5 minutes, then scatter with extra basil leaves before serving.
