Preparation
Boil the pasta
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
- Add the pasta; stir gently to separate.
- Boil, 6 to 8 min., until al dente.
- Reserving 1 cup cooking water, drain and toss with a drizzle of oil to prevent sticking.
Cook the sausage meat & tomatoes
- Meanwhile, in a large, high-sided pan, heat a drizzle of oil on medium-high.
- Add the garlic and sauté, 30 sec. to 1 min., until fragrant.
- Add the sausage meat* and tomatoes. Cook, breaking up the meat, 6 to 8 min., until golden brown and cooked through and the tomatoes begin to burst; season with the spices and S&P.
Make the sauce & combine the pasta
- To the pan, add the spinach, pasta, peas, ⅓ of the reserved cooking water and S&P; bring to a boil.
- Cook, scraping up any browned bits, 30 sec. to 1 min., until the spinach has wilted.
- Reduce to a simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, 2 to 3 min., until combined.
- If the sauce seems dry, gradually add the remaining cooking water until you achieve your desired consistency.
Plate your dish
- Divide the pasta between your bowls.
- Garnish with the cheese. Bon appétit!
*Health Canada recommends cooking ground pork to a minimum internal temperature of 71°C.
