Cooking Steps
• Boil the kettle. Half-fill a large saucepan with boiling water, then add a generous pinch of salt. • Cook fettuccine in the boiling water, over high heat, until ‘al dente’, 9 minutes. • Reserve some pasta water (1/4 cup for 2 people/ 1/2 cup for 4 people), then drain and return fettuccine to the pan. Cover to keep warm.
TIP: 'Al dente' pasta is cooked through but still slightly firm in the centre.
• While the pasta is cooking, thinly slice leek. • Squeeze herbed pork sausage meat out of its casing.
• In a large frying, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. Cook soffritto mix and leek until softened, 4-5 minutes. • Add the sausage meat and cook, breaking up with a spoon, until browned, 5-6 minutes. • Add Aussie spice blend and tomato paste and cook, until fragrant, 1 minute. • Stir through cream (see ingredients), reserved pasta water, chicken-style stock powder and the brown sugar, cook until slightly reduced, 1-2 minutes. Season to taste.
• Remove pan from heat, then stir through cooked fettuccine until combined. • Divide pork sausage and creamy tomato pasta between bowls. • Garnish with grated Parmesan cheese to serve. Enjoy!
