What you need

Method

  1. 1Pasta boiled two minutes short of the packet time. It finishes in the oven and overcooked pasta bake is mush.
  2. 2Courgette in half-moons browned hard in the oil with the garlic.
  3. 3Cottage cheese stirred into the passata — it melts into a creamy sauce and carries three times the protein a white sauce would.
  4. 4Everything mixed with the spinach, into a dish, mozzarella torn over in pieces rather than sliced.
  5. 5Hot oven, 15 minutes, until the top has brown patches.

Torn mozzarella, not grated: it melts into pools rather than a uniform blanket, which is what you actually want on top of a bake.
