Red Onion Sausage & Sun dried Tomato Bucatini
INGREDIENTS
Red Onion Sausages
Sun dried Tomatoes
Onion
Garlic
Passata
Bucatini Pasta
INSTRUCTIONS
For around 5 portions of Pasta, take 1 large Onion and dice up fairly fine.
Next, dice up a 300g jar of sundried Tomatoes, and keep the Oil to one side.
Add a dash of the sundried Tomato Oil to a pan, and add the Onions.
Season with Salt and Pepper, and start by sweating the Onions off without any colour.
Next, take the red Onion Sausages* and remove the skins.
* If you can’t find red Onion Sausages, use regular Sausage and add red Onion chutney, or, caramelised red Onions.
Once the Onions are soft, Sweet and translucent, add the Sausage meat and start to brown and caramelise.
Next, take 3-5 cloves of Garlic and finely dice.
Once the Sausage is caramelised, add the Garlic.
Cook out for 2-3 minutes, then, add the sundried Tomatoes.
Next, pour in around 650g of Passata and bring it up to a good simmer.
Simmer the Sauce for about 15-20 minutes, then, at the last minute tear in some fresh Basil.
Cook the Bucatini until perfectly el dente, 2 minutes less than the cooking time on the packet.
Drain, and pop the Pasta back in the pan with a splash of the Pasta water and a few spoons of the Sauce.
Toss the Bucatini in the Sauce.
Add the Pasta to a plate, grate over some Parmesan, and serve.
Enjoy
