Method
- Bring a pan of water to the boil, add the pasta and cook for 15 mins. Add the broccoli in the final 5 mins of cooking. Drain and return to the pan.
- Meanwhile, heat the oil in a frying pan, add the sausage chunks and fry for 10 mins, tossing occasionally, until golden.
- Add the milk to the pan of drained pasta and beat vigorously to break down the broccoli, creating a creamy sauce. Mix through the sausage and most of the cheese, then divide between 2 plates. Serve topped with the remaining cheese and a grind of black pepper.
