Ingredients
  • 250 g penne pasta
  • 4 thin lamb sausages
  • 1 onion, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, crushed
  • 1 cup reduced-fat thickened cream
  • 100 g baby spinach leaves
  • 1 tbsp olive oil or butter
  • salt and pepper to taste
Directions
  1. 1
    Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the penne pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
  2. 2
    While the pasta cooks, heat the olive oil or butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  3. 3
    Add the thin lamb sausages to the skillet and fry, turning occasionally, until browned and cooked through, about 8-10 minutes. Remove sausages from the pan and slice into bite-sized pieces.
  4. 4
    In the same skillet, reduce heat to medium. Add the chopped onion and cook until softened and translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
  5. 5
    Add the crushed garlic and cook for another 30 seconds until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.
  6. 6
    Stir in the baby spinach leaves and cook until wilted, about 1-2 minutes.
  7. 7
    Pour in the reduced-fat thickened cream and stir to combine with the spinach and onion mixture. Simmer gently for 2 minutes until the sauce slightly thickens.
  8. 8
    Add the cooked penne pasta and sliced lamb sausages back into the skillet. Toss everything together until the pasta is evenly coated in the creamy sauce.
  9. 9
    Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve immediately while hot.
