  Very good - tasted fantastic. Just used a good-quality sausage than a specifically italian one.

  Life is too short to remove sausage skins, cutting sausages with scissors works fine. I used tesco pork sausages that contained italian sun dried tomato and they made everything taste delicious, even broccoli! The fennel works really well. You can put more veg in this, I added a red pepper.

  Really enjoyed this, quick midweek meal. Loved the chilli kick. I used Cauldron Lincolnshire veggie sausages which worked really well.

  I added a little white wine to the sausage mix so that the pasta had a light coating of sauce when mixed together. Otherwise I think the pasta would be a little dry. We liked it that way.

  Made this for my carnivorous husband on the weekend... he gave it an 8 out of 10; said it was a tad bland so I will use half regular sausage and half chorizo next time (his suggestion). Otherwise a really good, quick, satisfying meal!

  I used ordinary broccoli and more sausages. I thought it was great but my son found it too hot!

  Made this for dinner tonight, delicious! Was worried it might be a bit dry, but the tip to reserve some pasta water to add worked a treat. Will definitely be having this again :)

  Great dish - enjoyed the spice, it really spiced up the evening. However the dish tastes just as good once the fennel seeds are removed for those who do not like the heat! :) Definitely will be cooked often!

  Just an Ok recipe. Would be just as good with ordinary broccoli as the tenderstems are lost/wasted for the overall dish. Will try it again and add some cherry toms in next time as it needs a third dimension to make it taste a bit better. I did use Italian sausages as readily available from Asda's from Jamie Oliver's food collection, really gorgeous too.
