Sugo di Salcisse (Sausage Sauce)
This is a pretty simple but delicious Italian dish that'll take you half an hour to prepare.
Contents
You'll need (for 2):[edit]
- 2/3 salcisse (Italian pigmeat sausages)
- 1 onion
- 3 cloves of garlic
- olive oil
- 1 can of peeled tomatoes
- salt and black pepper
- 1/2 a bunch of arugula
- whatever pasta you fancy (I used farfalle)
Method[edit]
First, you want to take the skin off of the sausages
Then crumple them up with your hands until they resemble minced meat
Next, take the onion and garlic cloves and peel them
And chop them up nice and finely
Get your can of peeled tomatoes and cut them into small pieces
Get your skillet, put it on a nice high flame, and when it's hot put in some olive oil
Put in your messed up sausage meat and quickly fry it
Add the onion and garlic and let it fry with the meat for a short while ( a minute or 2)
Next, add the tomatoes and mix them in well. Season to taste with salt and pepper, turn the heat down to medium and let simmer for about 20 minutes, with the lid off
Put on some water for your pasta and time it so it'll be done when your sauce is down (my farfalle has a cooking time of 13 minutes, so I put it on 5 minutes after after I made the sauce)
While your pasta is boiling, take the arugula...
... and chop it up
When your sauce has about five minutes to go, add the arugula
Stir it in and leave simmer until your pasta is done, on low heat
Buono Apetito!
