Nigella Express; must use a top quality tomato and chile pasta sauce; a regular pasta sauce won’t do. Ingredients:
1 tablespoon chili oil |
2 lbs italian sausages (sweet or spicy) |
4 tablespoons marsala wine |
2 1/2 cups pasta sauce (chile tomato sauce for pasta) |
1 cup water |
1 lb instant polenta |
chicken stock (for the polenta) |
2 tablespoons olive oil |
Directions:
1. Heat the chile oil in a skillet and add the sausages; separating the links and letting them fry for about 5 minutes until they are colored.
2. Add in the Marsala and let the pan bubble for a minute or so, then pour the tomato chile sauce and water over the sausages.
3. Simmer for 15 minutes while you make the polenta; prepare polenta according to package directions except use chicken stock rather than just water.
4. When the polenta is cooked, whisk in 2 tablespoons olive oil.
5. Divide the polenta among 6 warm plates and top with the sausages and hot tomato sauce. If you have more sauce than you need per plate, just pour it into a little pitcher for people to add as they want.
