I offered to make dinner for Mother's Day and was turned down because we have so much food in the house that it was better to eat the leftovers. But since I had a good recipe idea, I thought I'd jot it down here. This is a good, light spaghetti recipe with a bit of a kick that combines these two recipes: Spaghetti with Sausage and Torn Chicken Arrabiata

Was also going to serve this with a side either asparagus or green beans. :)

Ingredients
8 ounces hot Italian turkey sausage links
1 onion
3 cloves of garlic
a handful of fresh basil
a glug of olive oil
1 tsp of chilli flakes
1 tsp of dried oregano
1 tbsp of tomato purée
1 tin of chopped tomatoes (400g)
chicken stock (100ml)
1 pkg of whole wheat angel hair pasta

1. Preheat broiler.
2. Peel and finely dice the onion and mince the garlic.
3. Rip the basil.
4. Heat the oil in a saucepan and add the onion and garlic to fry gently until softened, then add the chilli flakes and oregano.
5. Stir in the tomato purée then pour in the chopped tomatoes and stock before bringing to the boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for 20 minutes.
6. Cook pasta according to package directions, omitting salt and fat; drain.
7. Arrange sausage on a small baking sheet. Broil sausage 5 minutes on each side or until done. Remove pan from oven (do not turn broiler off). Cut sausage into 1/4-inch-thick slices. Arrange slices in a single layer on baking sheet. Broil sausage slices 2 minutes or until browned.
8. Chuck the basil into the sauce.
9. Drain the pasta and toss in to the sauce. Done!
