Savor the flavors of this Spicy Sausage Pasta Bake, a dish that perfectly combines the heartiness of sausage with the gooey delight of stringy mozzarella. This recipe features 200g of pasta, enriched with a sauce made from chopped tomatoes, crème fraîche, a dash of Worcestershire sauce, and a sprinkle of sugar for balance. The heat comes from fresh chili and lazy garlic, while fresh basil adds an aromatic touch. The star of the dish is the sausage, removed from its casing and fried until browned, then combined with the rich sauce. Parmesan cheese adds a savory depth. Once the pasta is cooked and drained, it's mixed with the sauce, transferred to an oven-proof dish, and topped with torn fresh mozzarella.
