Pasta Bake With Sausage Broccoli And Beans Recipes

BROCCOLI & SAUSAGE PASTA BAKE RECIPE - (4.3/5)

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of well-salted water to a boil. Add pasta and begin cooking according to package instructions. Five minutes before the cooking time is up, add broccoli. Give it a stir and let everything continue cooking. Drain the broccoli and pasta together and place in a large bowl. Meanwhile, heat 1-2 tablespoons olive oil in a large sauté pan over medium heat. When hot, add the sausage, breaking it up with a wooden spoon until it starts to brown, about 5 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon or spatula, leaving about 1 tablespoon of fat behind. Preheat oven to 350°F. Melt butter in the same saucepan over medium heat. Once melted, add flour and whisk into butter until smooth. Cook the mixture for a minute or two, stirring constantly. Pour in a small drizzle of milk, whisk constantly until smooth. Continue to drizzle a small amount of milk at a time while whisking. Once you have added a little over half of the milk, the sauce will start to thicken and you can add the milk in larger splashes. Once the milk is completely added, add the salt, garlic and a few grinds of pepper. Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook, while stirring frequently, for 10 minutes. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. Add the sausage and sauce to the bowl with the pasta and broccoli. Stir in mozzarella and half of the grated Parmesan. Pour into a deep oval or rectangular 3-Qt baking dish and top with remaining Parmesan. Bake for 30 minutes, until the edges start to brown. Garnish with basil if desired. Eat warm and reheat as needed!

PASTA BAKE WITH SAUSAGE, BROCCOLI AND BEANS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Lightly oil a 9-x-13-inch gratin or baking dish.
• In a separate pot, bring water to a boil and add 1/2 teaspoon of salt, broccoli and garlic. Simmer the broccoli and garlic for 5 minutes, until softened. With a slotted spoon remove the broccoli and garlic to a large bowl. Bring the water back to the boil, add the pasta, and cook the pasta for about 2 minutes less than the package directions suggest, about 11 minutes. The pasta should be al dente, a little firm.
• Meanwhile, in a large Dutch oven set over medium-high heat, heat the oil. Add sausage and the garlic cloves from the broccoli bowl, and cook, stirring frequently until meat is fully cooked and no longer pink, about 4 to 5 minutes, if using fresh sausage. (If using fully cooked sausage, cook until surface is golden, about 2 to 3 minutes.) With a slotted spoon, transfer sausage to the broccoli, and drain most of the oil from the pan, leaving about 2 tablespoons. Discard the garlic.
• Toss drained pasta with sausage mixture. Add beans, stock, 3/4 cup of grated mozzarella cheese and all of the ricotta. Add remaining salt and pepper. Gently toss. Transfer to prepared gratin or baking dish, top with breadcrumbs, remaining 1/4 cup of grated cheese and 1/4 cup mozzarella cheese, and drizzle with olive oil.

Sizzle for 10 mins until browned (don't worry if the meat breaks up). Add the garlic and sizzle for another minute until starting to turn golden, then stir in the chilli flakes, if using, the tomato purée and vinegar. Tip in the tomatoes and bring to a simmer. Reduce the heat to low and bubble for 30 mins.
• Meanwhile, make the white sauce. Melt the butter in a saucepan and stir in the flour to make a loose paste. Sizzle for a minute, then gradually whisk in the milk. Simmer gently for 10 mins, whisking occasionally to ensure the sauce stays smooth. Season and whisk in the parmesan. Remove from the heat and set aside.
