Last night, made one of our favourite pasta dishes that I do from time to time: onions, peppers, garlic, tomatoes, Italian-type sausages cut up in bite size pieces, in a sauce with red wine & seasonings, served over penne with grated parm. And garlic bread (shop bought French stick, cut in half & smeared with butter/raw garlic mixture & put under the grill). Oh it was so good & I got a really good 'do' on the sauce, even better than usual, DH said. Also the garlic bread was divine as I got the mixture of garlic & butter just right this time. With lashings of red wine.
Usually I use the Sicilian style Taste the Difference sausages from Sainsburys, but this time I spied Debbie & Andrew's Harrogate sausages in a Sicilian flavour at Morrisons so I used those instead this time. The Sainsburys ones have fennel seed like the Italian sausages you would buy in the US, but the Debbie & Andrew's ones don't - so I threw some fennel seed into the sauce.
Oh! Too much red wine though (we got through two bottles
). ¡Ay mi cabeza! This morning.
Tonight - hmmmm, thinking of doing a homemade oven-baked fish & chips but haven't really decided yet.
