Preparation 10 minutes preparation + 35 minutes cooking

Place the crumbled sausage in a skillet, add the water, cover and cook over medium-high heat for 6 minutes.

Remove the lid and cook for an additional 15 minutes, until the water evaporates and the sausage is browned.

Bring 6 quarts of water to a boil and add 2 tablespoons salt. Cook the Ziti according to the package directions until al dente.

Meanwhile, place the Ricotta in a large warmed bowl and mix in the chili flakes, salt and pepper to taste. Drain the pasta, reserving 1 cup of the pasta cooking liquid.

Add the Ziti to the skillet with the cooked sausage mixture and place over medium heat. Toss to mix well and then transfer the whole mixture into the bowl with the Ricotta.

Add some of the pasta cooking water if necessary to thin the mixture. Add the parsley and season again with salt and pepper if necessary. Top with grated Romano cheese.
