EASY SAUSAGE & ROASTED VEGETABLE PASTA

Ingredients

6 pure pork sausages, sliced thickly
2 garlic cloves, sliced
1 red onion, sliced
2 courgettes, sliced
1 yellow capsicum, sliced
1 tsp Italian herbs
1 tsp dried basil
125ml (41/2 fl oz) dry white wine
200g (7 oz) dried penne pasta
1 tbsp olive oil
4 vine-ripened tomatoes, cored and sliced into wedges
2 tbsp freshly chopped parsley
Parmesan shavings for sprinkling

Method

Preheat the oven to: 200˚C / 400˚F / Gas 6.
Put the first 8 ingredients into a large roasting tin. Mix well and place uncovered in the oven. Cook for 15-20 minutes, or until the sausages are cooked and the vegetables have softened.

Meanwhile, cook the pasta in plenty of salted water until al dente, drain and mix with the olive oil to prevent it from sticking.

Once the sausages have cooked, place the tomatoes on top and return to the oven for 5 more minutes. Remove from the oven and stir in the pasta and parsley. Season with salt and pepper and serve with parmesan shavings.
