Instructions

slice open your sausage
1

Boil a large pot of water with ¼ tsp of salt for your pasta. Slice open the sausage casing, peel them off and discard them.

prepare your broccoli
2

Chop the head off the broccoli and cut it in half lengthways. Chop the remaining stalk into bite-sized pieces.

3

Boil the broccoli for about 90 seconds. Keeping the water, lift the broccoli out and keep to the side. Tip: Keep the water on high heat for the pasta.

4

Cook the pasta for around 10 mins or until ‘al dente’. Tip: ‘Al dente’ simply means the pasta is cooked through but has a slight hint of firmness left in the middle.

add the broccoli to the pan
5

Heat 1 tsp of olive oil in a frying pan on medium-high heat. Once hot add the pork and break up with a wooden spoon. Once the pork has lost its raw colour add the drained broccoli.

Add a couple of tbsp of water
6

After a couple of mins add a few tbsp of the water from your pasta. Add the pesto and stir everything together.

7

Add the drained pasta into the pan. Grate your parmesan, scatter over half of it and toss everything together. Serve with the remaining parmesan and a few grinds of black pepper.
