Method

Step 1 - Get your pasta cooking

Put your chosen pasta onto cook into salted boiling water and set a timer, according to the pack instructions

Step 2 - Begin making your sauce

Slice your chorizo into thin slices and add to a frying pan, along with the diced pepper and 1tbsp of extra virgin olive oil. As chorizo is naturally quite oily, you do not need to add much extra for frying

Step 3 - Fry for a few minutes

Fry gently for a few minutes or until the oils from the chorizo run and start to cook the peppers

Step 4 - Add Tomato Sugo

Once the chorizo are turning golden and the peppers have started to soften, add your jar of sauce

Step 5 - Drain pasta and add sauce

Turn down the heat and allow to gently bubble for a few more minutes, or until your pasta is ready to drain. Pour the sauce into the drained pasta and mix well, whilst adding the chopped parsley
