Sausage Pasta

Prep time: None

Cooking time: 15 mins

Serves: 4

ingredients

300g Simon Howie Pork Sausages (1 pack)

400g linguine

190g jar pesto

200g baby spinach

1 fresh mozzarella

Fresh basil (optional to garnish)

Salt and pepper to taste

Method

1. Cook the linguine following packet instructions, until al dente. Reserve ½ a mug of pasta water, then drain pasta.

2. While the pasta is cooking, remove the meat from the sausage skins and cook the sausage meat in a large frying pan. Use a wooden spoon to break up the sausage meat and fry on medium heat until golden and cooked through, approx. 5 mins. Near the end add the spinach and cover to allow to wilt, this will only take a minute.

3. Add the cooked pasta, pesto and reserved pasta water to the frying pan with the sausage meat. Combine well then remove from the heat and add in torn up mozzarella pieces.

4. Season and serve immediately. Top with optional fresh basil and enjoy!
