Penne Arrabiata with Smoked Sausage

Step 1

Drizzle your olive oil into a pan over medium heat. Once hot, add sausage & fry for a few minutes each side until brown.

Step 2

Push to the edges of the pan then add your garlic & chilli flakes into the centre. Fry for a couple of minutes until the garlic begins to brown. Meanwhile pop your pasta in salted boiling water and cook until al dente, reserving 1/2 cup / 125ml starchy pasta water just before draining.

Step 3

Once your garlic becomes fragrant, add your tomato puree and fry for 1-2mins, then stir in starchy pasta water. Add your tomatoes then season to taste with salt, pepper and sugar. Allow to simmer for a good 10mins, or until it slightly thickens.

Step 4

Add your pasta then stir through your parmesan and parsley. Serve with extra parmesan/parsley and enjoy!
