Cavatappi with sausage

Cook Time 25 minutes
Servings 4 portions

Ingredients

  • 300 grams of pasta (cavatappi)
  • 2 sausages (280 grams)
  • 3 dl of tomato puree (passata di pomodoro)
  • Oregano
  • 2 tablespoons of mascarpone cheese
  • Fresh parsley
  • 1 tea spoon of sugar
  • Olive oil
  • Salt
  • Black pepper
  • Grated cheese (parmesan, Grana Padano for topping)

Instructions

  • Chop up sausage to smaller pieces and sear it on olive oil for a few minutes while stirring until the sausage is done and gets a bit browned, crisp at edges (you can use up cooked leftover sausage).
  • Add in tomato puree, pasta and season with salt, sugar, black pepper, oregano. Pour in 6 dl of water (maybe less at first and add more if needed), just enough to cover up ingredients and cook for about 10 minutes until pasta is cooked.
  • Stir occasionally, especially towards the end of cooking and make sure the dish doesn’t burn.
    Add more water if needed, but make sure it’s not runny at the end of cooking. Tomato must stick to the pasta.
  • Then stir in mascarpone cheese, add chopped parsley and serve hot, sprinkled with grated cheese.
