Provided by gailanng

Categories     Pork

Time 1h

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 tablespoon olive oil
3 mild Italian sausage, chopped
4 medium garlic cloves, crushed
1 medium onion, chopped fine
1 teaspoon fennel seed, crushed
1 teaspoon sugar
1 (29 ounce) can tomato sauce
1 tablespoon tomato paste
5 basil leaves, coarsely chopped
1 lb rigatoni pasta
water
3/4 cup half-and-half
salt
fresh ground black pepper
fresh grated parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Heat olive oil in heavy saucepan; add sausage and brown.
  • Add onion and garlic; cook until the onion is translucent.
  • Add tomato sauce, tomato paste, sugar, crushed fennel seed, and basil; stir and cook over moderate heat for 20 to 30 minutes.
  • Bring 4 quarts of water to a boil in a large pot and add all the pasta at once; stir well.
  • When the sauce is ready, put half-and-half in a bowl and add a little of the hot sauce to it to temper the milk. Add the milk to the rest of the sauce. When the rigatoni is cooked al dente, drain and put in large serving bowl. Add the sauce and stir to coat.
  • Garnish with basil leaves and serve with fresh parmesan cheese.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients, the better the dish will taste. Look for fresh, flavorful tomatoes, creamy heavy cream, and high-quality sausage.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When browning the sausage, make sure to give it enough space in the pan so that it can brown evenly. If you overcrowd the pan, the sausage will steam instead of brown.
  • Cook the sausage until it's fully browned: This will help to develop the flavor of the sausage and prevent it from becoming greasy.
  • Use a good quality tomato sauce: If you don't have time to make your own, there are many good quality store-bought tomato sauces available.
  • Add the cream at the end of cooking: This will help to prevent the cream from curdling.
  • Serve the dish immediately: Sausage with rigatoni in tomato cream sauce is best enjoyed fresh out of the pan.

Conclusion:

Sausage with rigatoni in tomato cream sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a flavorful and satisfying dish that the whole family will love.
