Recipe: Mustardy Sausage & Sticky Onion Pasta

Every autumn I become obsessed with slowly frying onions for 30 to 40 minutes to make them sweet, sticky and juicy.   They are then made into a sauce with a little cream (50ml for two people), chopped sausages and a generous dash of French’s smooth and spicy American mustard.   The mustard has just the right mix of sweetness and heat when paired with the sausage and onion, and thickens the sauce nicely.     If you have not done so before, do try adding a little pasta water to a creamy sauce.  It bulks it out and does not add the scary calories that cream contains.

I used a rather wonderful artisan pasta, from the Terracafe in London.    The Terracafe is a gem, situated in the wasteland between Victoria rail and coach stations.     They serve great Italian coffee and sell a range of delicious top notch products from Tuscany Corner.      With the price of rail travel rocketing we are travelling by coach more and more frequently, and the Terracafe will become a “must stop” for both provisions for the journey and presents when going to stay with people.
