Instructions

Get Prepped
1

Put a large saucepan of water on to boil with 1/2 tsp salt for the pasta.
Halve, peel and chop the onion into small pieces. Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press). Roughly chop the parsley (stalks and all).

Fry the Sausage Meat
2

Heat a drizzle of oil in a large frying pan on medium-high heat.
Once hot, add the sausage meat and cook until browned, 5-6 mins. Use a spoon to break it up as it cooks, then drain and discard any excess fat. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw meat.

Add the Flavour
3

Add the onion to the sausage meat and cook until softened, 4-5 mins, stirring occasionally.
Add the garlic, then stir and cook until fragrant, 1 min. Stir in the tomato puree and cook for 2 mins more.

Simmer the Ragu
4

Add the chopped tomatoes, chicken stock paste and sugar for the sauce (see ingredients for amount) to the pan, then stir together and bring to a simmer.
Allow to cook until the ragu has reduced and thickened, 12-15 mins. Season to taste with salt and pepper. IMPORTANT: The sausage meat is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.

Cook the Pasta
5

While the ragu simmers, add the linguine to the boiling water and bring back to the boil. Cook until tender, 12 mins.
Once cooked, drain in a colander and pop back into the pan. Drizzle with oil and stir through to stop it sticking together.

Combine and Serve
6

When ready, add the cooked pasta to the ragu and stir through half the parsley and half the grated hard Italian style cheese.
Toss together. Add a splash of water if it's a little thick.
Share the pork linguine between your bowls and top with the remaining parsley and cheese.
Enjoy!
