COMFORTING SAUSAGE BAKE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 180ºC/350ºF/gas 4.
• Halve the cherry tomatoes, peel and finely slice the garlic, and tear the bread into bite-sized chunks.
• Place it all in a 30cm x 35cm roasting tray, pour in the beans and their juice, drizzle with 1 tablespoon each of olive oil and red wine vinegar, add a splash of water, and mix it all together.
• Quickly pinch and twist each chipolata in the middle to make it into two mini ones, then randomly dot them around your bake, lightly pressing them into the beans and tomatoes.
• Roast for 45 minutes, or until everything is golden, bubbling and delicious.

ITALIAN SAUSAGE AND RADIATORE PASTA {HOMEMADE SAUCE}

Steps:

• In a medium size pot, add hot water. Heat the pot on medium heat. Bring to a boil and add the salt.
• Add pasta to the pot and stir. Cook the pasta until its al-dente (according to package instructions). Drain the pasta (don't rinse the pasta) and set aside.
• Don't rinse the pasta after cooking it. When pasta is rinsed, the starch is removed. The starch on pasta helps to hold and absorb the sauce so it's important to keep the starch on the pasta.
• While the pasta is cooking, chop the onions, garlic and parsley. Set them aside.
• In a large shallow pot or sauté pan (with high sides), add the sausage. If the sausage is in a casing, make a small cut on one of the ends, squeeze the meat out, and discard the casing.
• Stir and using a spatula, break apart the sausage into small pieces as it cooks.
• When the sausage starts to brown, add the onions, garlic and olive oil. Stir. Continue to stir while cooking for about 3 minutes or until the onions start to turn translucent.
• In a small bowl, add the canned diced tomatoes. With clean hands squeeze the tomatoes so there are no big chunks, and add them to the pan.
• Add the tomato sauce to the pan. Fill the empty tomato sauce can with water and add the water to the pan. Stir the sauce.
• Add parsley, oregano, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper. Stir. Turn the heat down to low and let the sauce simmer (uncovered) for about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Add the pasta to the sauce. Gently stir the pasta into the sauce. Top with grated Parmesan cheese and parsley and serve while warm.
