One-Pot Spicy Sausage Pasta

Ingredients

• 6 spicy sausages
• 1 red chilli (optional)
• 4 servings uncooked dried pasta (see note 1)
• 2 x 400g cans chopped tomatoes
• 2 tbsp dark soy sauce
• 1 tsp olive oil

Instructions

1. 1

   Finely chop the chilli (if using) and chop the sausages into slices about ½cm thick.

2. 2

   Heat the olive oil (1 tsp) in a large pan on a medium heat. Add the sausages and chilli and fry for a couple of minutes until the sausages have browned. Stir regularly to stop the burning.

3. 3

   Add the chopped tomatoes (2x 400g cans), pasta (300g) and soy sauce (2 tbsp). Top the pan up with water so that the pasta is just covered - Don't add too much as the sauce won't have enough time to reduce while the pasta is cooking.

4. 4

   Bring to the boil, reduce the heat and cook for 15-20 minutes until the pasta is soft with a little bite. Stir occasionally to prevent it burning. If the pan starts to look too dry before the pasta is cooked add a little more water.

5. 5

   Serve
