Categories     Dinner

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 tsp olive oil
1 small red onion, chopped
2 sausages
1 garlic clove, crushed
8 cherry tomatoes, halved
2 tsp harissa paste
75g mascarpone or soft cheese
100g rigatoni or penne
small handful of parsley, chopped

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a large frying pan over a medium heat and cook the onion until softened and translucent, about 8 mins. Push to one side of the pan.
  • Squeeze the sausagemeat from the skins into the centre of the pan. Cook for 5-8 mins until browned, squashing into smaller chunks with the spoon as it cooks. Add the garlic and tomatoes. Let the tomatoes soften for a few minutes, stirring now and then to prevent sticking. Stir in the harissa paste and mascarpone.
  • Meanwhile, cook the pasta in salted water in a saucepan following pack instructions.
  • Drain the pasta, saving a mugful of the water. Tip the pasta into the sauce, add the parsley and stir together. Add a splash of the pasta water to loosen the sauce - it should be silky and coat the pasta without pooling in the bottom of the pan. Grind over some black pepper to serve, if you like.
