This recipe is a riff on a ragu alla monzese - a rich and creamy sausage and saffron sauce from the Lombardy region in Northern Italy. Marsala wine, saffron, Italian sausage and porcini mushrooms bring big, big flavours, with the creamy base providing the comfort levels. A short pasta is best paired with this sauce, and rigatoni works especially well.
Serves four
Ingredients:
300g rigatoni
½ tsp saffron threads, soaked in 25ml warm water
20g dried porcini mushrooms, soaked in warm water for 5 minutes, then drained
2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
4 Italian sausage links, removed from their casing
2 tablespoons Marsala wine
225ml cream
1 tbsp unsalted butter
50g Parmigiano Reggiano finely grated, plus extra to serve
Method:
Sauce
Cook the rigatoni in a large pot of generously salted water according to packet instructions.
Meanwhile, add the olive oil to a large saute pan over a medium heat, followed by the sausage meat, breaking it up into small pieces using the back of a spoon. Cook the sausage until it’s nicely coloured and starting to get a little crispy - around 7 minutes.
Add the Marsala wine to deglaze the pan, making sure to scrape up any crispy bits of sausage.
After a minute or two, pour in the cream, followed by the saffron and water it’s been soaking in.
Stir through the drained porcini mushrooms and let the sauce simmer away over a very low heat until your pasta is suitably al dente.
Transfer the cooked pasta directly to the sauce along with some of the pasta water, 1 tablespoon of butter and the grated Parmigiano.
Toss well, adding pasta water as needed to loosen the sauce - season to taste.
Divide between bowls and serve with extra grated Parmigiano.
