Whenever I make this the bottom layer of the meat sauce gets burned while the pasta is cooking. Any advice ?

Before you add the pasta, lower the heat. You might want to add a bit more water, and you should stir the pot once or twice until the pasta is cooked. The pasta does not need a lot of heat to cook and if there is still enough liquid toward the end of the cooking process, you could close the heat, stir the pot well, put a lid on your pot, and let the pasta absorb the liquid. That will help to distribute the sauce well and prevent the sauce from sticking.
