Recipe information

  • Yield

    8 servings

Ingredients

1 pound good-quality spaghetti
1 tablespoon butter
3 large eggs, beaten
1 cup homemade red sauce or prepared tomato sauce
1/4 teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper
Pinch of salt
3 ounces mozzarella cheese, grated (about 1 cup)
1 1/2 ounces Parmesan cheese, grated (about 1/2 cup)

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Cook the pasta in generously salted water according to the package directions until just shy of al dente. Drain and set aside.

    Step 2

    Preheat the oven to 400°F. Butter a 9-inch springform pan (see Note) and set aside.

    Step 3

    In a large bowl, stir together the eggs, red sauce, pepper, salt, and all but 1 tablespoon each of the mozzarella and Parmesan. Add the pasta and toss to coat evenly. Transfer to the prepared springform pan and sprinkle with the reserved cheeses.

    Step 4

    Bake until the top is nicely browned and crisp, 30 to 35 minutes. Let cool for 5 minutes before unmolding.
