How to make cheese and tomato pasta bake

  1. Cook the pasta: Bring a large pot of salted water to the boil then add your pasta and cook until al dente.
  2. Make the tomato sauce: Cook onion and garlic in olive oil until soft and translucent. Add tomatoes, Balsamic vinegar, seasoning and stock or wine. Allow to simmer for 10-15 minutes while the pasta cooks. Drain the cooked pasta, reserving 1 cup of cooking water. Add the pasta to the tomato sauce and use the cooking water to thin out the sauce if necessary. Transfer half of the pasta to a baking dish then top with half of the grated mozzarella and cheddar cheese. Cover with the remaining pasta and cheese.
  3. Bake: Place in a pre-heated oven to bake for 15-20 minutes until the cheese has melted and the top is golden brown. Remove from the oven and serve.
