Good evening, everyone. Today's dish is linguine with Italian sausage. Ade had this on the menu at 'The Bay Horse'. It's a nice comforting, hearty dish. Sadly, I have yet to find any Italian sausage in the UK (no jokes please). So this recipe will make me weep with longing as I type it.
Tomorrow night, the lucky winner will be announced. ;)
For the sauce:
1 small onion, very finely chopped
1 carton of passata
About 1/2 cup of water (I add it to the empty passata carton and swish it around to get the last bits of sauce)
oregano
garlic powder
basil
parsley
brown sugar
Italian sausage, cooked and chopped.
Soften onion until transparent, in olive oil. Pour in the passata, add 1 teaspoon of oregano, garlic powder, basil and parsley. Simmer for a little while. Add enough brown sugar to take the acid 'edge' off the tomato-based sauce. Add the chopped sausage and simmer a little more.
Serve over linguine with plenty of freshly grated Parmesan or Romano cheese.
