| 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? |

| Not sure if it helps, but when we do the dolmio one the pasta is meant to be cooked... |

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. ------------- Kelly, mum to DD, 19Jun06 (26wks 1lb15oz) DS1, 24Oct10 (32wks 4lb11oz) and DS2, 31Dec11 (32wks, 4lb11) http://lilypie.com">

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. ------------- Our Angel July 08  Gone but not forgotten

| 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. |
