Autumn Penne Pasta with Sauteed Brussels Sprouts In A Light Ragu

I’m busy working on my cookbook, so I thought since I’m making this tonight, I would revive it from the archives. Trust me it’s good, and if you don’t believe me read the comments!

A hearty pasta dish for a crisp Autumn day. Pasta is tossed with sauteed brussels sprouts and a quick meat ragu made light by using lean ground turkey and just enough hot Italian pork sausage to enhance the flavor of the sauce.

I know what some of you are thinking, brussels sprouts???

Trust me on this, prepared right, they are delicious!

My husband almost didn’t allow me to add them to his portion claiming how much he dislikes them. He put his fork in my bowl of sauteed brussels sprouts and quickly changed his mind. He claimed I cheated by adding all that garlic to them. Well whatever works : )

In fact, all throughout the meal, he raved about what a great dish this turned out to be. Serve this with Pecorino Romano sprinkled on top and spoonful of part-skim ricotta on top, yum!!

Ingredients:

1 sweet or hot pork sausage link, casing removed, crumbled
3/4 lb 93% lean ground turkey
4 tsp olive oil, divided
4 cloves garlic, sliced thin
10 oz brussels sprouts, weight after outer leaves and stems removed
1 small onion, diced small
1 carrot, peeled and diced small
1 celery stalk, diced small
28 oz crushed tomatoes (I use Tuttoroso)
1 bay leaf
pinch crushed red pepper
kosher salt and fresh ground pepper to taste
1 lb high fiber, low carb or whole wheat pasta (brown rice pasta for gluten free)

Directions:
In a large, wide skillet, add sausage and turkey over medium-high heat, breaking up the sausage and turkey as it cooks into small pieces. When completely cooked through; set aside in a bowl.

With a sharp knife, cut the brussels sprouts into thin shreds.

To the skillet, add 2 tsp of oil over medium heat. When hot, add the garlic and cook until golden (do not burn). Add shredded brussels sprouts, salt and pepper and sauté until tender crisp, about 4 to 5 minutes; set aside in another bowl.

To the same skillet, add remaining 2 tsp of oil over medium-high heat. Add onion, carrot and celery, stirring well to coat with oil. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables turn golden brown, about 10 to 12 minutes.

Add crushed tomatoes, sausage and turkey, bay leaf, crushed red pepper, salt and fresh pepper to taste. Reduce heat to low, cover and simmer about 30 – 40 minutes, or until sauce thickens.

Meanwhile, while sauce is simmering, put a large pot of salted water to boil for the pasta. Add the pasta to the water 10 minutes before the sauce is done and cook pasta al dente.

Drain and add the pasta to the skillet and toss with the sauce.

Add cooked brussel sprouts, toss and place in a large pasta bowl.

Pasta and potatoes it is the dish of the heart of Antonio Arcieri, since 2019 chef of Arco by Paco Perez and Treinta y Tres in Gdansk, in Poland: “It reminds me of the days when dad cooked this specialty of his. he tells us – It takes me back to my Calabrian origins, with the variant of parmesaninstead of try it, heritage of Northern Italy, where I grew up. When I prepare it at home, in Poland, I can see the table with the whole family gathered together.”

The chef, who arrived in Poland after working at El Bulli and Azurmendi and in Paco Perez’s Spanish restaurants, gave us his recipe for pasta and potatoes: the potatoes cut into cubes and boil together pasta drained al dente they are poured together into a pan with the garlic, stirring with a little cooking water and parmesan. The goodness of this dish is also in the creamy texture of the potatoes which slowly fall apart during creaming.

Sweet omelette recipe with jam – Italian cuisine reinvented by Gordon Ramsay

Among the testimonies that the editorial team of La Cucina Italiana has collected to create a “national bank” of home recipes there is the one from the recipe book of the Dalla Vedova family which collects the preparations of Ada, the beloved home cook.

One of the recipes is that of omelette with jam: “Sweets in our house were considered something extra and appeared only on so to speak canonical occasions: sossole (chatter, ed.) at Carnival, hot chocolate and pudding at birthdays – says Nicoletta Dalla Vedova, who wrote the recipe book with the help of brothers, cousins and childhood friends – The omelettes with jam were part of the recipes dedicated to the children at home. Even my cousin Giorgio remembers how good they were and I remember how abundant they were!”.
