Nan’s Creamy Pork Sausage Orecchiette

with Spinach & Parmesan

We have a dilemma, those herby pork sausages look so tasty but we’re also really wanting a creamy pasta. If you feel the same, then the solution is right here - let’s have both in a pork sausage fusilli! There’s no need for compromise when you can have both!

We’ve replaced the fusilli in this recipe with orecchiette due to local ingredient availability. It’ll be just as delicious, just follow your recipe card!

Cooking Steps

1

• Boil the kettle. Half-fill a large saucepan with boiling water and a pinch of salt. • Cook orecchiette in the boiling water, over high heat, until ‘al dente’, 8 minutes. • Reserve some pasta water (1/4 cup for 2 people/ 1/2 cup for 4 people), then drain and return orecchiette to the pan. Cover to keep warm.

TIP: 'Al dente' pasta is cooked through but still slightly firm in the centre.

Cook soffritto mix until softened, 4-5 minutes. • Add the sausage meat and cook, breaking up with a wooden spoon, until browned, 5-6 minutes. • Add garlic, Nan's special seasoning and tomato paste and cook until fragrant, 1 minute. • Stir through cream (see ingredients), chicken-style stock powder, baby spinach leaves, reserved pasta water and the brown sugar, until reduced slightly, 1-2 minutes. Remove pan from heat, then stir through orecchiette.
