Method

  1. Cook pasta according to pack instructions. Heat the oil in a deep frying pan, then fry the sausages and mushrooms for 5 mins until golden. Add the tomatoes and cook for about another 3 mins on a high heat until the tomatoes pop and start to form a sauce. Season to taste, then add the herbs and drained pasta and stir well.

Creamy mustard pasta with sausage meatballs

Squeeze the sausagemeat out of the skins, then roll into small balls with your hands. Fry with the mushrooms as before until golden, add the tomatoes, then fry until they have just softened, rather than popped completely. Add 3 tbsp crème fraîche (or more if you like) and 1 tbsp wholegrain mustard, then heat until the sauce is hot through. Season, stir in the flat-leaf parsley and serve with the drained pasta.

    This was an instant hit, especially with my 3 year old son who normally hates trying anything new. I'm cooking it for the second time tonight - so quick, easy and tasty. I added a can of chopped tomatos to give it some sauce and even managed to sneak in some home grown veggies.

    As everyone is saying, a filling quick meal, easy to prepare. I used Frantic Flapjack's idea (19 Nov 08) and also added a dash of worcester sauce. Will certainly make this again.
