Instructions

Step 1
Pasta: Boil 300g wholewheat penne in salted water (usually takes 10–12 minutes). Crucial: Reserve a mug of the starchy pasta water before draining.
Step 2
Sausages: In a large pan, fry the 10 sausages in the oil for 5 minutes. Slice them into rounds once they are firm.
Step 3
Aromatics: Add the onion and garlic. Cook for 3 minutes until softened.
Step 4
Reduce Tomatoes: Pour in the chopped tomatoes. Simmer on medium heat for 8–10 minutes until the liquid reduces and the sauce thickens.
Step 5
Creamy Finish: Stir in the 75ml double cream. Simmer gently for 1–2 minutes until the sauce is rich and orange.
Step 6
The Mix: Toss in the cooked wholewheat pasta and spinach. Stir until the spinach wilts. If the wholewheat pasta makes the dish feel "dry," add 2–3 tablespoons of the reserved pasta water to make it glossy again.
