Method

  1. Cook the pasta following packet instructions and drain.
  2. Take the skins off the sausages, pinch the meat into little pieces and cook in 2 tsp oil in a hot, non-stick frying pan. Fry all over until really golden and crisp, then add the fennel seeds and cook for a minute. Pour in the stock or wine and let it bubble up then stir in the mustard and crème fraîche. Simmer until it's the consistency of single cream then toss with the pasta and parsley and serve.

    Quick, easy and tasty. Added sage & thyme to plain pork sausages but other than that kept to the recipe.
