Pasta Shells with Sausage ‘Meatballs’ & Cheese

Servings 4

Ingredients

  • 250 grams Pasta Shells
  • 4 Sausages – I used beef and rosemary flavoured
  • 1 teaspoon Oil for frying
  • Garlic – 2 cloves or 1 teaspoon of minced garlic
  • 1 can of crushed tomatoes
  • 1 tablespoon Tomato paste optional
  • 1 teaspoon Sugar/honey
  • Pinch Salt
  • 1 Beef stock cube
  • Herbs (optionaI used oregano
  • Cheese to put on top of the dish I used Tasty

Instructions

  1. Cook pasta as per packet instructions *OR use your precooked frozen pasta warmed up.
  2. While the pasta is cooking, heat oil on a medium heat in a frypan.
  3. Squeeze your sausages out of the casing and roll to make “meatballs” OR just slice if you prefer. And add to the pan. Once nicely browned, add the garlic and cook, watch it as you don’t want the garlic to burn. Add the canned tomato, beef stock cube & tomato paste. Season with salt and sugar/honey & oregano if using. Simmer until reduced and tastes lovely – about 5 minutes should do it. Taste for seasoning and adjust if needed.
  4. Serve the sauce over the pasta and topped with grated cheese!
