Slicing sausage into pieces gives the illusion of meatballs when cooked. Because the sausage and stewed tomatoes are already seasoned, you really don't have to add any more flavour.

Ingredients

  • 1 lb mild Italian sausages
  • 1 can (19 oz/540 ml) Italian stewed tomatoes
  • 1/4 cup tomato paste
  • 1 cup chopped fresh parsley
  • 12 oz spaghetti
  • 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Preparation

Cut sausages into 1/2-inch (1 cm) thick slices. In skillet, cook sausages over medium-high heat, turning once, for 5 minutes or until browned. Drain off any fat.

In food processor or blender, puree tomatoes; pour into skillet. Add tomato paste; bring to boil. Reduce heat to medium; simmer for 7 to 10 minutes or until thickened. Stir in parsley.

Meanwhile, in large pot of boiling salted water, cook spaghetti for about 8 minutes or until tender but firm. Drain and return to pot. Add sauce; toss to coat. Serve sprinkled with Parmesan cheese.
