Time 30m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 pound bulk Italian sausage
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 teaspoon chile flakes, or more to taste
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 shallot, thinly sliced
1 cup fresh or frozen corn
1 small zucchini, sliced into 1/4-inch rounds
1 small summer squash, sliced into 1/4-inch rounds
2 tablespoons tomato paste
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

2 heaping tablespoons pesto
One 15-ounce package gnocchi
3 cups torn kale
4 ounces mascarpone
Small block Parmesan, for grating
1/4 cup fresh basil leaves

Steps:

  • Heat a large pot over medium heat. Brown the sausage in larger chunks, 4 to 5 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and reserve. Drizzle in the olive oil, then add the chile flakes, garlic and shallot. Give the pan a stir, then add the corn, zucchini and summer squash and cook to soften, 2 to 3 minutes.

Provided by Sarah Cook

Categories     Buffet, Side dish

Time 2h10m

Yield Makes 12

Number Of Ingredients 7

500g pack bread mix
oil , for greasing
8 good-quality sausages , cooked following pack instructions and cooled
a little flour , for dusting
50g garlic butter , melted
6 spring onions , finely sliced
200g mature cheddar , grated

Steps:

  • Make up the bread mix following pack instructions. Set aside somewhere warm-ish to rise, in a bowl covered with oiled cling film, while you get everything else ready. Slice the cooked sausages into just under 1cm slices.
  • Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface to a rectangle roughly 50 x 30cm. Brush with half the garlic butter and scatter over the spring onions, cheese and sausages. Roll up the dough tightly from one of the longest sides, like a Swiss roll. Use a sharp, floured knife to cut the roll into 12 pieces. Wipe the holes of a 12-hole muffin tin with a little more melted butter. Push a roll of bread, cut-side up, into each hole. Dab the remaining butter over the tops, and cover loosely with oiled cling film. Set aside somewhere warm-ish for 30 mins to puff a little.
  • Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Bake the rolls for 20-25 mins until golden and risen. Cool in the tins for 10 mins, then lift out to eat warm, or cool completely.
