Kitchen tip

The biggest shortcut is to cook the pasta elbows directly in the sauce. Use a larger pan so the pasta has room, and stir mainly toward the end of cooking. Add the mozzarella only after turning off the heat — it won’t become rubbery and the sauce will stay creamy.

Variants and alternatives

For a heartier version, add diced zucchini or bell pepper to the onion and sauté briefly. If you want a spicier sauce, add a pinch of chili flakes along with the oregano. You can replace the mozzarella with a grated melting cheese, such as Gouda or Edam.
