Preparation

  • Step 1 - Pumpkin and sausage meat pasta
    Crumble the sausage meat and place it in a pan with a drizzle of olive oil.
    If you have sausages in the fridge instead of sausage meat, use them! Simply remove the transparent part around the sausage and collect the meat.
  • Step 2 - Pumpkin and sausage meat pasta
    Brown the sausage meat with the olive oil over high heat for 3-4 minutes while stirring.
    Add the white wine and continue stirring until the alcohol evaporates.
    Reserve this preparation in a bowl.
  • Step 3 - Pumpkin and sausage meat pasta
    Prepare the pumpkin: remove the skin and cut the flesh into small pieces to ensure faster cooking.
  • Step 4 - Pumpkin and sausage meat pasta
    After finely cutting the onion, brown it with a drizzle of olive oil in the same pan as the sausage meat.
    Add the rosemary sprigs and pumpkin pieces then cook a little while mixing.
  • Step 5 - Pumpkin and sausage meat pasta
    Remove the rosemary sprigs and add half a glass of water to the pan. Cook covered for 18 minutes over medium heat while stirring from time to time.
  • Step 6 - Pumpkin and sausage meat pasta
    Cook the pasta according to the directions on the package.

    Mash the pumpkin using a wooden spoon (this will almost give you the texture of a puree). Add the sausage meat you had reserved and pepper. Stir.
    Add a spoonful of pasta cooking water, mix and simmer over low heat until the pasta has finished cooking.
  • Step 7 - Pumpkin and sausage meat pasta
    Once the pasta is cooked, drain it and add it to the pan directly with the filling.
    Add the grated parmesan and mix.
  • Step 8 - Pumpkin and sausage meat pasta
    All you have to do is serve your pasta on a plate, sprinkle more parmesan on top and enjoy it!
