Shells stuffed with minced meat
Shells stuffed with minced meat are a common way to make Italian pasta. Large shell-shaped pastas (conciglioni in Italian) are constantly cooked with innards and sauces.
It is better to use pork minced meat for stuffing shells so that it contains natural fat, which will make the dish juicy. But you can also prepare conchiglioni with minced chicken or minced veal, adding a little extra butter.
The shells will be baked in a fragrant sour cream and tomato sauce with the addition of sweet pepper under a thick layer of cheese. It is best to bake in portioned dishes - this way the shells stuffed with minced meat will retain their shape and the dish will not lose its appearance during serving.
Ingredients
- conciglioni – 30-35 pieces
- minced meat – 400 g
- cheese – 150-200 g
- egg – 1 pc.
- onion – 1 pc.
- sweet pepper – 0.5 pcs.
- garlic – 2-3 cloves
- sour cream – 1.5 tbsp. spoons
- tomato paste – 1 tbsp. spoon
- salt pepper
- little vegetable oil
- fresh herbs - for serving
Manufacturing
Prepare everything you need: shells, minced meat, cheese, tomato paste, sweet peppers, onions, garlic, sour cream.
First, boil water in a large saucepan, salt it and boil until the shells are half cooked (6-7 minutes).
When the shells are cooked, transfer them to a container with cool water - this way they will not stick together and will retain their shape, so they will be comfortable to stuff.
Heat a frying pan and fry the minced meat over high heat, stirring constantly so as not to create large lumps. Lightly salt and pepper the minced meat.
When the meat begins to brown, transfer it to a small bowl, let it cool slightly and mix it with 50 grams of grated cheese, also a raw egg.
Now start making the sauce. To do this, coarsely chop the onion and chop the garlic.
In the same frying pan in which you prepared the minced shellfish, fry the onion and garlic until translucent.
Coarsely chop and add the sweet pepper to the pan.
Cook the vegetables together for 2-3 minutes, then add tomato paste and 1 glass of water to the sauce. You can replace tomato paste and water with regular tomato juice.
Simmer the vegetables for another 3-4 minutes, then chop them with a blender.
Pour 2 tbsp into the bottom of the serving molds. spoons of sauce.
Stuff the semi-finished shells with ready-made minced meat, cheese and eggs. Carefully place the conchiglioni with minced meat into the molds.
Add sour cream to the remaining sauce and stir well.
Pour the stuffed conchiglioni with sour cream and tomato sauce.
Grate the remaining cheese and sprinkle it generously over the top of the shells.
Bake the dish in the oven at 200 degrees for 15-20 minutes until the conchiglioni are golden brown.
Serve the finished shells right out of the oven, adding fragrant chopped herbs.

Step-by-step recipe with photos
There are many recipes for making stuffed pasta shells. Most often, shells are filled with minced meat, but they are also stuffed with vegetables, cottage cheese with herbs, mushrooms, and sometimes even sweet entrails. Usually, pasta is boiled until half cooked before stuffing.
I suggest stuffing pasta shells with meat innards and baking them with sauce and cheese. If you cook from the entire pack of shells, you end up with a fairly large pan of the dish.
So, let's start making it. I prepare the products according to the list.
I peel and wash the onions and garlic.
I grind the onion and garlic through a meat grinder, add minced meat, salt and pepper to taste.
I mix the minced meat thoroughly.
I boil the pasta for 5 minutes after boiling (the pasta does not have to be completely cooked, the cooking time may vary).
I put the shells in a colander and rinse with water. You can grease the pasta a little with vegetable oil so that it doesn’t stick together.
I fill the shells with minced meat and place them in a greased pan.
I'm preparing the sauce. I stir flour in a small amount of milk.
Heat the remaining milk with butter and bring to a boil.
To the boiled milky consistency I add milk with flour, salt and dark pepper to taste, and ground nutmeg. Stirring constantly, I bring the sauce until it thickens.
I fill the stuffed shells with sauce.
I bake the dish in an oven preheated to 200 degrees until golden brown.
I sprinkle the shells with grated cheese.
I bake the shells again until golden brown.
I serve the shells, garnished with herbs.
