Conchiglie gratinate (baked pasta shells in a cheese sauce with salami)

Method

3. Drain the pasta and return to the saucepan. Stir in the butter, soft cheese, mozzarella and half of the Parmesan.

4. Mix well, before pouring in the milk. Stir over a low heat to make a creamy texture. Add the salami, season with salt and pepper, and stir in the parsley.

5. Transfer the pasta mixture to a large baking tray, sprinkle over the remaining Parmesan and bake for 15 minutes until the top is golden and crisp. Serve hot.
