I've never made a pasta bake before and the can says to add 2 cups of pasta. Do I need to cook this first or do I add dry pasta?

The recipe I make says to just use uncooked pasta (and 3 cups of milk/water) but I always cook it first or else I find it doesn't cook enough while in the oven. If the recipe says to use a large amount of liquid then it will mean to use uncooked pasta.

Is that the maggi ones in the packet. If it is its uncooked. They are really yummy. I love the bolognse one and also the cabanara one but i add chicken in with that one.

I cook the pasta first as well. I find it never cooks fully in the oven if I put it in dry.

Yep, I always cook the pasta first, just undercook it a little or it can tend to go a bit smushy once its in the oven.
