Sausage Fusilli


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pack fresh fusilli pasta
  • 1 pack sausage
  • 1 summer squash
  • 2 tbsp sage
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 small finely chopped onion
  • 1 clove minced garlic
  • Salt and pepper

Instructions

  1. Bring a pot of salted water to a boil in preparation for the pasta.
  2. In a separate large skillet, heat one tablespoon of olive oil, then release the sausage from its casing and fry it in the olive oil, cutting it into pieces with a wooden spoon. Once the sausage has begun to cook, add onion, garlic and finely chopped sage. Cook together for 5-7 minutes. Chop the summer squash into small cubes and add that to the skillet to sauté. Turn off the heat and add the remaining olive oil and butter.
  3. Once the water has come to a boil, drop in fresh pasta and allow it to cook for 5-7 minutes until it is al dente. When straining the pasta, reserve half a cup of your pasta water to mix into the pasta sauce later on.
  4. Drop the hot pasta back into the skillet and turn it back on medium/low. Mix together with the sausage, adding the half cup of water gradually. Add salt and pepper to taste.
