Orichette with Sausage


Ingredients

2 links of italian sausage (I used a turkey version)
1 can peeled tomatoes, drained and chopped
3 tbsp butter
handful baby spinach
1 onion, chopped
1 garlic clove, crushed
1 lb or so of dried orecchiette
1 tbsp olive oil
salt and pepper
frshly grated parmasean cheese, to serve
1 egg (per plate)


Directions
  1. Melt the butter in a deep skillet on med high, with a little olive oil. Remove the casing from the sausage and brown the sausage and crumble in the pan. Add onion and garlic and cook until translucent, about 5-7 mins.
  2. Meanwhile, boil the water for the pasta, and cook to package instructions. Mine took 12 mins.
  3. Add tomatoes, spinach to pan and season with salt and pepper to taste.
  4. When pasta is done, drain and add to pan. Mix well and serve. Sprinkle with grated cheese and top wth a sunny side up egg (I cooked the in the same pan after I emptied it of the pasta and sauce mixture so it would collect all the flavors.)
