Bill's spicy sausage pasta
Method
-
Put a medium non-stick pan over a high heat and brown the sausages in 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Set the browned sausages to one side.
-
Reduce the heat to a medium flame and sweat the onions and garlic in the remaining oil for 2 minutes. Add the tomatoes, red pepper, chilli, oregano and sausages to the pan. Simmer covered until the red peppers soften (this should take about 10 minutes).
-
Cook the fusilli until al dente (with a bite) according to the manufacturer's instructions.
-
Drain the pasta well and put into two bowls with the sauce. Serve with a scatter of chopped parsley over the top.
