The fennel gives a gorgeous fresh lift to this rustic sausage sauce.
Cook's tip: Passata rustica has a thicker consistency than normal smooth passata and the texture works well in this dish.

Ingredients
- 250g wholewheat pasta

Method
Step 1
In a large non-stick pan heat the oil and gently cook the onion, carrot and fennel for 2-3 mins until beginning to soften.

Push to the side of the pan and add the sausage meat and cook until browned, about 5 mins. Stir it all together and add the garlic, fennel seeds and chilli and cook for 2 mins more.
Step 3
Add the passata, bring to the boil, add a cup of water and the bay leaf. Simmer for 20 mins until reduced and tasty, then season.
