Sausage with Red Cabbage Time: 20 minutes
4 - 6 sausages, any type, 12 oz total weight (350 gr)
red cabbage left from Saturday it gets better with age
In large nonstick skillet sauté sausages until nicely browned. Add red cabbage, a little water if it's dry, cover and simmer over low heat until sausages are done and cabbage is hot.
Pasta with Browned Butter Time - however long it takes to get the water to boil
and cook the pasta plus 7 minutes.
Use your choice of commercial pasta - I like penne for this but rigatoni or elbow macaroni is good -
or whatever is in the pantry is fine - should be bite-size, though, not tiny.
3/4 - 1 cup pasta, penne, rigatoni
2 tbs butter
pepper - lots
Cook pasta according to package directions, drain and put into a serving bowl. Return pasta pan to medium heat. Add butter to pan and let it fry until it turns brown - being careful not to let it turn too dark or it will taste burnt. When brown reduce heat and add lots of black pepper and a bit of salt. Put pasta back into pan and stir to coat and reheat. Serve.
Note: after removing the pasta it is best to add water to the pot or it is a bear to clean - or so mon mari tells me ;-)
