METHOD
1. Preheat the oven to 180°C on grill and line a baking tray with baking paper.

3. In a small bowl, season the tomato paste with the optional ¼ teaspoon of each salt and pepper.
4. Once the pasta has cooled, carefully arrange 10 pieces of pasta onto each skewer and place the assembled skewers on the prepared baking tray, spacing them out nicely.
5. Brush 1 tablespoon of seasoned tomato paste onto the pasta skewers and sprinkle mozzarella cheese over the top.
For the Hawaiian flavour:
6. Top the pasta sosaties with the ham and pineapple.
For the Margherita flavour:
7. Top the pasta sosaties with the sliced tomatoes and basil.
8. Grill the sosaties for 5-6 minutes or until the cheese has melted and the pasta base is slightly crispy, keeping an eye on them in the oven.
9. Garnish the pizza-pasta sosaties with freshly chopped spring onion, serve with your favourite tomato sauce and ENJOY!
