  Tried it and its really good. Did not have spicy sauce but spicy sausages and came really good. Will definitely do it again.

  Loved this - the fennel seeds really made the dish I thought. I used pork & herb sausages (wt was 400g) and also added some finely chopped onion & courgette instead of mushrooms. Used a 454g jar of sauce and that was fine.

  Just made it again and wanted to say that the type of sausage makes a big difference. The last time I used homemade-style herb sausages and this time I used cheapie/normal sausages. It was still tasty, but it was much better the first time with the good-quality sausages!

  I made this using chorizo sausage which are full of flavour and have a kick to them. I also made my own tomato onion mushroom garlic and basil sauce then added a few dried chillies. I always add a little sugar and butter to the sauce to bring out the flavour of the tomatoes. Delicious!!!

  I love this and make it regularly, I think the fennel really makes it special and I think sausages with caramelised red onions really add to it. The only negative comment i would make is that I find the Lloyd Grossman sauce overly salty and so intend to try altenatives. Any suggestions?

  Great storecupboard/freezer recipe - used up an old red pepper as not enough mushrooms in the fridge and used Seeds of Change sauce - as that's what I had handy !

  I altered this by chucking in chopped garlic and onions at the mushroom stage and allowing to soften, then using a can of plum tomatoes with some chopped large fresh tomatoes and chopped fresh basil instead of the jarred sauce. A splash of red wine vinegar and worchester sauce at the end also worked well. :)

  I can't rate this dish high enough - it tasted amazing! Really easy to make - good quality sausages are a must though. I used that well known 'Porky' variety. I didn't have fennel seeds so used mustard and I used a smaller 300g version of the sauce which was fine. As for the pasta, I used trottole instead of penne which was light and springy. Will definitely make this again for an easy mid-week meal.

  I was a little disappointed as what resulted was quite different from a traditional Bolognese - this was largely down to the fennel. However 10/10 for ease of preparation, and if I had just flown in from Mars I think I would give at least 8/10 for taste.

  I don't like fennel so omitted this and used some Italian herb mix instead. Fantastic result, very tasty, I will be making this again.

  This is delicious, I made my own sauce with it and added peas and sweetcorn to add more colour to the dish, the sausage is delicious using this method :) big thumbs up from me :)

  I made this as a family meal for 4 the other night and there was still plenty to spare :-) It was tasty and very very easy to make. I used an Asda Spicy Tomato Pasta Sauce instead of Lloyd Grossman and it was very tasty.
