25 minutes

Pasta with sausages and broccoli is a simple yet surprisingly delicious recipe from European cuisine. This combination arises from the desire to blend the richness of pasta, the tenderness of broccoli, and the spiciness of fried sausages. Fennel and garlic fill the dish with spicy notes, while red pepper adds a pleasant heat. Parmesan cheese completes the composition, making the flavor deeper and creamier. The dish is perfect for a cozy dinner as it cooks quickly and delights with a balanced mix of textures and aromas. It evokes family dinners in Italian homes where simple ingredients turn into gastronomic pleasure.
