Cheesy White Bean-Tomato Bake
Ingredients
  • For those of you who love lasagna's edges, where sticky tomato meets crisp cheese, this whole dish is for you - even the middle. A tube of tomato paste here mimics the deep flavors of sun-dried tomato. Frying a few generous squeezes caramelizes the tomato's sugars and saturates the olive oil, making a mixture that's ready to glom onto anything you stir through it. Here, it’s white beans, though you could add in kale, noodles, even roasted vegetables. Then, all that’s left to do is dot it with cheese and bake until it’s as molten or singed as you like. Serve with bread and a bitter-green salad.
  • ¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil
  • 3 fat garlic cloves, thinly sliced
  • 3 tablespoons tomato paste
  • 2 (15-ounce) cans white beans (such as cannellini or Great Northern) or chickpeas, drained and rinsed
  • ½ cup boiling water
  • Kosher salt and black pepper
  • ⅓ pound mozzarella, coarsely grated (about 1⅓ cups)
