Creamy Sausage and Leek Pasta

A brilliant weeknight supper - all you really need is a packet of sausages, and you can cobble the rest together from the fridge and cupboards. The leeks are an underrated addition, and the crème fraîche makes it creamy yet somehow light.

Ingredients

Method

Turn cooking mode on

Step 1

Heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Add 2 tbsp olive oil, then the sausage meat (if using sausages, remove the casings first - keep them fridge-cold, run a knife down the length and peel). Break apart with a wooden spoon. Don't season if using sausages (already seasoned); season plain sausage meat. Fry until golden and crispy, almost mince-like, 5-7 minutes.

That's so funny about penne! Maybe it's a British aversion? Lol. I'm in Boston with a heavy Italian population, and penne is one of the most popular shapes in this area! People can't get enough of it. :D

Me, too! Always a favorite. <3 Tubes are the best for holding sauce, and you're right about the ridges.
