Noodles Napoli Recipes

Steps:

• Brown onion and garlic slightly in 1 tablespoon oil.
• Add beef and stir until brown.
• Stir in mushrooms, tomato sauce and paste, 1 teaspoon salt and oregano and simmer.
• Beat 1 egg slightly and pour over cooked noodles.
• Beat second egg and add spinach, 1 tablespoon oil, cottage cheese, Parmesan cheese and 1 teaspoon salt and mix.
• Pour half tomato mixture into large shallow oblong baking pan.
• Layer half noodles on top.
• Spread with spinach mixture.
• Repeat noodle layer and top with remaining tomato sauce.
• Cover with foil and bake for 45 minutes at 350.
• Uncover and arrange squares of processed cheese on top.
• Bake 5 minutes more or until cheese is melted.

Steps:

• Heat oil and butter in a large heavy pot or Dutch oven over medium until butter is melted. Add onions and garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, until very tender and deeply golden brown, about 30 minutes. (Stop before the onions become dry and shriveled.) Add red pepper flakes (if using) and 1 1/2 tsp. salt. Remove pot from heat.
• Meanwhile, cook pasta in a large pot of boiling salted water, stirring occasionally, until al dente. Reserve 1 1/2 cups pasta cooking liquid.
• Add pasta and 1 cup pasta cooking liquid to onion mixture and stir to combine. Add a small handful of cheese and stir until melted. Repeat with remaining cheese, adding more pasta cooking liquid as needed to create a glossy sauce that coats the pasta. Stir in parsley (if using).
• Divide pasta among bowls. Top with Parmesan, parsley, and a few cranks of pepper.

Steps:

• 1. Lightly brown meat in a large skillet. Add salt and onion and cook about 5 minutes. Add tomato sauce, water and oregano. In another pan, cook noodles until al-dente; drain, add to beef mixture. Combine sour cream and ricotta cheese. In a 9x13-inch casserole dish, layer half of the noodle mixture, add the spinach in a layer and dollop 1/2 of the sour cream mixture. Top with remainder of noodles and rest of sour cream mixture. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Bake at 375^ for 30-40 minutes.
