Notas
Cook the pasta only until al dente, as it will still bake with the cream mixture. Grease the bottom and sides of the baking dish well with olive oil and breadcrumbs for better texture. For a more golden top, leave it in the oven for a few extra minutes, watching carefully so it does not dry out.
