Ingredients

  • 5 Salsiccia sausages
  • 0.5 Red onion
  • 1.5 Garlic cloves
  • 400 ml Cream
  • 250 ml Water
  • 275 g Pasta
  • 90 g Cream cheese
  • 0.375 Organic lemon zest
  • 4.5 tbsp Organic lemon juice
  • Flour
  • Herbs de Provence
  • Paprika powder
  • Turmeric
  • Black pepper
  • Salt
  • Garlic powder

Instructions

  1. Cook the pasta al dente according to the package instructions and set aside. Save some pasta water.
  2. Squeeze the Salsiccia sausages out of their casing, crumble them into a large pan, and fry them until well browned.
  3. Add the diced red onion and chopped garlic and sauté briefly.
  4. Add a generous amount of flour and briefly sauté while stirring to create a roux.
  5. Add the lemon juice.
  6. Deglaze the pan with cream and water.
  7. Stir in the lemon zest.
  8. Let the sauce simmer for about 10 minutes until it becomes creamier due to the flour. If too thin, mix a little flour with water and carefully add to the sauce.
  9. Stir in the cream cheese and all the seasonings (Herbs de Provence, paprika powder, turmeric, pepper, salt, and garlic powder).
  10. Let it simmer on low heat for another 20 minutes.
  11. If the sauce becomes too thick, add some of the reserved pasta water.
  12. Add the cooked pasta to the sauce and mix briefly until the sauce coats the pasta nicely.
