Fed up with bangers and mash? Introduce your sausages to Italian pasta and French crème fraiche and give them a bit of a continental twist. Creamy pork pasta with lemon, chilli and peas may be as posh as sausages get, but it's still cheap and easy.

Serves 4
Ready in 20 minutes

Ingredients

  • Pack of 6 sausages
  • 1 lemon
  • Pinch of dried chilli flakes
  • 200g tub of half-fat crème fraiche
  • 500g packet of pasta
  • Couple of handfuls of frozen or fresh peas
  • Block of Parmesan

Method: How to make pork pasta with lemon

1. Take the sausages and split the skins, squeezing the meat from each into a hot pan. Pan-fry, breaking up the meat, until golden and crispy in places.

2. Add grated lemon zest, a good squeeze of lemon juice, dried chilli flakes and the tub of half-fat crème fraiche. Bubble away for 1 minute.

3. Cook pasta according to the packet instructions and throw in the peas for the last few minutes. Drain, reserving some of the cooking water.

4. Toss the pasta and peas with the sauce, thinning down with the cooking water as necessary.

5. Serve with lots of freshly grated Parmesan.

  4. I cooked this, this evening and it was disgusting!!! The worst part is taking the meat out of the sausages, it really is not nice. Sausage meat with peas, lemon and chilli is not a good combo, try and avoid this if you don't wanna be sick!!
