What more can I say?  Took 40 mins to make so not an overly quick recipe but wow what a taste! I used plain pork sausages from my local butchers (Pitts in Earby as he makes the best pork sausages 💕). I made a half portion (serves 3) on the sauce and have set aside the extra portion for freezing and only made a third of the pasta as I’m serving 2. Used 1 cayenne chilli and didn’t deseed as we like extra heat. So so tasty. This recipe does not disappoint. Will I make this again?
