Steps
- 1
Prepare the pasta according to package directions till al-dente. drain when done, and set aside.
- 2
While the pasta is cooking, prep the rets of the ingredients. cube the sausage, dice the onions and garlic and slice the mushrooms.
- 3
In a non-stick vessel, heat the olive oil. add the cubed sausage to the oil and sautee. the sausages will release their fats into the pan, and shrink in size.
- 4
Remove the sausage into a separate dish and set aside. add cumin seeds into the vessel on the stove.
- 5
When the seeds splutter, add the garlic to the pan. sautee for about a minute.
- 6
Next, add the diced onion and sautee till it turns translucent.
- 7
Add the crumbled bouillon cube and ground cinnamon. stir well to combine.
- 8
When the onion starts to caramelise to a light golden, add the mushrooms and sautee till they release their liquids into the pan and shrink.
- 9
Cook them off for a bit, till the liquids reduce by about half, and then add in the previously seared sausage pieces. stir well.
- 10
Add the jar of pasta sauce to the pan, and stir well to combine (you might want to add some water too if you feel its too thick).
- 11
When it starts bubbling, add the rosemary, marjoram and basil. stir to combine.
- 12
Check for seasoning at this stage, and add salt (if required) and LOADS of freshly cracked black pepper.
- 13
Add the cream, and mix well. the sauce will turn into a pale orange color.
- 14
Add the cooked pasta to this and toss everything well so as to coat the pasta with the sauce. heat it through for about a minute and take it of the heat.
- 15
Serve with a light sprinkling of grater parmesan (optional, but its pretty rich as it is!) and DIG IN!!!
