Rigatoni al forno is available in dozens of different variations. What they all have in common is that they are topped with delicious cheese. For my variant, I opted for a vegetarian rigatoni variation consisting of a mild lentil sauce with tomatoes, onions, garlic and spices. For the perfect Rigatoni al forno I still need creamy mozzarella to bake the Rigatoni crispy and of course a homemade bechamel sauce, which rounds off this recipe.
If you like, you can of course modify this recipe as you like. Whether with minced meat, ham, peas or paprika – Rigatoni al forno can be baked with anything. Take a look at my others Pasta recipes around if you feel like it.

Pasta al Arrabbiata is the ultimate classic when it comes to Italian food. The special thing about this pasta is the fiery tomato sauce, which is heated with plenty of chili. Traditionally, this pasta is often served with penne, but for reasons of beauty I opted for rigatoni because I like the coarse pasta better. You can of course use any other type of pasta of your choice for your al arrabbiata.
As already mentioned, the arrabbiata is spicier than a normal tomato sauce. This is achieved in my recipe by adding a fresh chilli pepper. If you like it even more fiery, you can of course also add dried chilli flakes. However, I like the Arrabbiata a little milder, so one chili was enough for me.
If you’ve got even more desire for pasta recipes, have a look at my recipe category “ Pasta and rice ” around. Here you will find many other pasta variations of all kinds.
