    Drain the pasta when it is still slightly al dente and place it in a large bowl.

  5. STEP 5 OF 9

    Add the béchamel, half of the grated Parmigiano, and the mozzarella cubes to the pasta. Mix well.

  6. STEP 6 OF 9

    Pour everything into a baking dish and spread it evenly.

  7. STEP 7 OF 9

    Sprinkle the surface with the remaining grated Parmigiano.

  8. STEP 8 OF 9

    Bake in a preheated ventilated oven at 180/200°C for about 25/30 minutes.
