FOR MEATBALLS
Make meatballs:
In a bowl, stir together well turkey, garlic, bread crumbs, onion, pine
nuts, parsley, egg, salt, and pepper and form into meatballs about 1-inch
in diameter. In a large heavy skillet heat 2 tablespoons oil over
moderately heat heat until hot but not smoking and cook half of meatballs,
shaking skillet, until browned and cooked through, about 4 minutes.
Transfer meatballs to paper towels to drain and brown remaining meatballs
in remaining 2 tablespoons oil in same manner.
Preheat oven to 375 degrees and oil a 3 to 4 quart gratin dish or other
shallow baking dish.
In a kettle of salted boiling water cook pasta until just al dente, about 8
minutes, and drain well. In a small bowl toss together mozzarella and
Romano. Spoon about 1 1/2 cups tomato sauce and half of meatballs into
prepared dish and spoon half of pasta on top. Spread half remaining sauce
and half cheese mixture over pasta. Top with remaining meatballs and drop
dollops of ricotta over meatballs. Spread remaining pasta over ricotta and
top with remaining sauce and remaining cheese mixture. Bake penne in middle
of oven 30 to 35 minutes, or until golden, and let stand 10 minutes before
serving.
Yield: 6 to 8 servings
