penne with sausage + tomato

serves two
2 tbsps olive oil
3 plump sausages (italian fennel ones would be great), skinned and crumbled
½ onion, chopped
1 garlic clove, crushed
4-5 sage leaves, chopped
200g tinned tomatoes
2 tbsps double cream
160-200g penne, cooked
40g parmesan

Heat the oil in a pan and add the sausage. When it's starting to colour, add the onion, garlic and sage.  Cook until the onion has softened. Add the tomatoes and simmer gently for 15 minutes. Stir in the just cooked penne and add the cream and half the cheese. Serve with the rest of the parmesan sprinkled over.
