Christmas Sausage Pasta

Ingredients

Serves 1

55g linguine

55g parsnips, peeled into thin strips

2 tsp olive oil

2 pork sausages

1/4 tsp dried sage

60g brussel sprouts

20g yoghurt, such as Greek, natural or soya

Salt and pepper

15g parmesan, finely grated

Total time: 25 minutes

Method

Cook the pasta according to the packet instructions until just al dente. Add the parsnip strips for the last minute then drain, reserving a mug of the cooking water.

Meanwhile heat the oil in a large, non-stick frying pan over a medium to high heat. Squeeze out the sausage filling and crumble into the pan. Cook for a few minutes then add in the dried sage. Cook for 3-4 minutes until the sausage meat is starting to crisp up a little. Add the sprouts and stir everything together.

Add the cooked pasta, parsnips and a splash of the cooking water to the frying pan. Turn the heat down and add the yoghurt. Stir everything together, adding a little more cooking water if needed, and season to taste. Serve with a sprinkling of parmesan.
