Caccavelle alla Sorrentina

Method

1. 1 Boil the large shell pasta for less than 3 minutes than directed, as it will be baked later in the oven.
2. 2 Sauté the minced pork with tomato sauce and Italian basil until thickened.
3. 3 Mix the ricotta cheese with parmigiano cheese and a pinch of salt and pepper.
4. 4 Stuff the ricotta and meat mixture into each clam shell and arrange them upright in a tray.
5. 5 Spread tomato sauce and mozzarella over the top, bake at 200 degrees for 20 minutes until golden brown.

With an appliance

• Air fryer 55 min

  Replace step 5: spray a thin layer of oil onto the sides of the mold, use a 215-degree hot air oven for 13 minutes, rotate the tray at minute 6; divide into two smaller molds because the oven does not contain a large mold. The strong airflow shortens the time by about one-third compared to a conventional oven and browns the surface faster.
