Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 onion
- 3 garlic cloves
- 5 sausages
- 1 head of broccoli
- 100 ml white wine
- 150 ml double cream
- 80 grams parmesan grated
- 300 grams spirali pasta
Instructions
- Bring a large pot of water to the boil. Add the pasta and cook according to packet instructions. Drain and set aside.
- Heat the oil in a large frying pan over a medium heat. Add the peeled and chopped onion and garlic. Cook for 2 minutes, until starting to soften.
- Break the sausages into small pieces with your hands. Add to the pan, and cook for a further 7-8 minutes, stirring regularly, until cooked. Finely chop the stem of the broccoli and add to the pan after 3 minutes have passed.
- Tip in the wine and allow to reduce for 3-4 minutes, before adding the broccoli florets and 100ml water. Allow to soften - this will only take a minute or two - then add the cream.
- Remove from the heat and stir in the pasta and Parmesan. Season according to taste with salt and pepper.
