Ingredients
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 6 sausages*
- 1 red pepper chopped
- 3 cloves garlic crushed
- 400 g chopped tomatoes
- 1 tsp dried oregano
- 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
- 300 g dried pasta
- grated cheese optional to grate on top – Parmesan, Cheddar or Mozzarella work well
- 500 ml chicken stock (or vegetable stock)
Instructions
- Cut the sausage into bite-sized chunks.
- Heat a large non-stick pan over medium heat. Fry for 5–7 minutes until browned.
- Add the chopped red pepper and cook for another 2–3 minutes until slightly softened.
- Pour in the chopped tomatoes and stock. Add the dried pasta, oregano, paprika, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Stir to combine.
- Bring to a simmer, cover with a lid, and cook on a low-medium heat for 12–15 minutes. Stir occasionally to stop the pasta sticking. Add a splash more water if needed.
- Serve hot, topped with grated cheese if desired.
Notes
* I used 6 sausages which when cut up was enough to feed 4 people when combined with the pasta and other ingredients. You could however use more sausages if you want to.
