Recipe:

Sausage Ragu with Pappardelle Pasta

INGREDIENTS:

2 tbsp olive oil

1 small onion, finely chopped

3 garlic cloves, finely minced

1 carrot, peeled and grated using a box grater

2 celery stalks, grated using a box grater

1 tsp fennel seeds

350g pork sausages, meat removed from casings

350g beef sausages, meat removed from casings

2 tbsp tomato paste

1 cup pinot noir red wine

1 cup chicken stock/broth, low sodium

400g can crushed tomato

3 thyme sprigs (or 1/2 tsp dried)

2 bay leaves

1/2 tsp cooking salt/kosher salt

1/2 tsp black pepper

1/4 tsp chilli flakes (red pepper flakes), optional (for hint of heat)

500g pappardelle pasta

Parmesan to serve

INSTRUCTIONS:

1 Preheat oven to 180°C (160°C fan-forced)

2. Heat oil in a large heavy based pot (with a lid) over medium heat. Add the onion, garlic, carrot, celery and fennel seeds. Cook for 8 minutes until the carrot is soft and sweet, but not golden

3. Cook sausage, breaking it up as you go

4. Once the meat is no longer pink, add the tomato paste. Cook for 1 minute. Add the wine and let it simmer rapidly for 2 minutes until reduced by half, stirring regularly

5. Slow cook #1 – Add the remaining ragu ingredients. Stir, bring to a simmer, put the lid on and place it in the oven for 1 hour.

6. Slow cook #2 – Remove from the oven and use a potato masher to mash the meat finer. Put the lid back on, and return to the oven for 45 minutes (the sauce will be quite thick)

7. Taste and add more salt if desired

8. Cook the pappardelle according to the packet instructions. Just before draining, scoop out 1 1/2 cups of the cooking water and set it aside.

9. Add the pasta into the ragu pot along with 1/2 cup of the pasta cook water, toss

10. Serve, garnish with parmesan and a pinch of parsley if desired. Eat immediately!
