Creamy Mustard Pasta With Sausage Meatballs Recipes

ONE-POT SAUSAGE MEATBALLS WITH CREAMY TOMATO PENNE

Steps:

• In large bowl, mix sausage, bread crumbs, onion and egg until well combined. Shape mixture into 12 (2-inch) meatballs.
• In 5-quart Dutch oven, heat oil over medium heat. Add meatballs; cook 9 to 11 minutes, gently turning occasionally, just until browned on all sides.
• Stir in broth, pasta sauce and whipping cream; heat to boiling. Stir in pasta; return to boiling. Reduce heat; simmer uncovered 18 to 22 minutes, stirring occasionally, until meatballs are thoroughly cooked and no longer pink in center (165°F), pasta is cooked to desired tenderness and sauce is thickened. Top with Parmesan cheese and basil.

VENISON MEATBALLS WITH CREAMY MUSTARD SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and place a cooling rack on top.
• Combine ground venison, Italian sausage, Parmesan cheese, bread crumbs, egg, white wine, garlic, basil, and oregano in a large bowl; stir until well combined. Scoop meat mixture from the bowl and form into 2-inch balls. Place meatballs on top of the cooling rack.
• Bake in the preheated oven until meatballs are cooked through, about 25 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).
• As soon as meatballs go in the oven, begin the sauce: heat olive oil and butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms and thyme; cook until mushrooms are dark brown in color, about 10 minutes.
• Whisk together half-and-half, mustard, and cornstarch in a small bowl. Pour half-and-half mixture over mushrooms, reduce heat, simmer for 5 minutes, stirring continually. Turn heat off, season with salt and pepper, and let sit to thicken.
• Remove meatballs from the oven, transfer to a serving plate, and drizzle with mustard sauce.

CREAMY MUSTARD PASTA WITH SAUSAGE MEATBALLS

Steps:

• Cook pasta according to packet instructions.
• Squeeze the sausage meat out of the skins, then roll into small balls with your hands.
• Fry with mushrooms for 5 minutes until golden. Add the tomatoes and cook for another 3 minutes on high heat until the tomatoes soften. Add creme fraiche and wholegrain mustard, then heat until the sauce is hot through.
• Season, then stir in the parsley, drain pasta and serve.

SAUSAGE AND MUSHROOM PENNE IN MUSTARD CREAM SAUCE

Steps:

• Squeeze the sausage meat out of their casings and shape into small meatballs. Heat some oil in a heavy based pan and brown the meatballs all over until just cooked. (Another method, which is what I have done, is to cook the whole sausages on the grill or fry them in a pan until cooked, and then slice them up.) Set aside.
• Cook the pasta in a pot of boiling water until al dente, according to packet instructions.
• While the pasta is cooking, heat the olive oil in a large heavy based pan and add the garlic and spring onions and cook over medium heat for a minute.
• Add the mushrooms and sautee till cooked.
• Add the sausages, mustard and cream and simmer until the sauce is reduced. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
• When the pasta is cooked, drain and add to the mustard cream sauce. Mix well.
• Stir in the parmesan cheese if using.
• Dish up onto plates, scatter over basil leaves and serve immediately.
