Instructions
-
Add butter, oil, chilli flakes, oregano seasoning, garlic, capsicum, mushroom, raw pasta, red pasta sauce, salt, pepper and sugar to a 7-inch round pan and mix. Ensure the pan is Air Fryer friendly, I've used a glass pan.
-
Add water and mix lightly. Ensure the pasta is submerged under the water.
-
Wrap the pan with aluminium foil, and cover the base as well so it is more secure. Covering only the rim with foil might cause it to come off in the air fryer.
-
Bake at 180C for 45 minutes. Uncover the foil, and mix well. If the pasta feels dry, add 2-3 tablespoons of water and mix. Sprinkle cheese and chopped basil on top and bake at 200C for 3-4 minutes or until the cheese melts. Serve immediately!
-
If you want to store it for later, cover it with cling film and refrigerate. Bring it back to room temperature and melt the cheese right before serving.
Notes
- Before baking, make sure that theย pasta is fully submerged in the waterย sauceย mixture.
- If the pasta feels dry after baking,ย add 2-3 tablespoons of water and mix through before bakingย again with the cheese topping.
- If you want to store the pastaย for later, wrap the dish with cling film and refrigerate. When itโs time to serve, bring the dish back to room temperature and melt the cheese with a final bake.
