Instructions

  1. Take sausage out of casings and crumble.
  2. Put olive oil and chopped garlic in a skillet and turn the heat to medium.
  3. When the garlic becomes pale gold, add the sausage.
  4. Turn from time to time, until nicely browned all over, about 15 minutes.
  5. Add the tomato and cook, uncovered, stirring occasionally, adjusting the heat if necessary so it will cook at a gentle simmer.
  6. After about 20 minutes, when the fat separates from the other juices and floats free, add the cream and turn up the heat.
  7. Cook for 1 to 2 minutes, stirring frequently, until the cream is reduced.
  8. Add salt and a liberal grinding of pepper.
  9. Turn off the heat and stir in the chopped parsley.
  10. Cook pasta in pot of boiling salted water.
  11. When tender, but firm to the bite, drain; toss immediately with sauce.
  12. Serve at once with freshly grated parmesan cheese.
  13. NOTES: The sauce maybe be prepared several hours in advance.
  14. It should be reheated gently when the pasta is almost cooked.
  15. I always double the sauce because in my house there never seems to be enough.
  16. My family loves this sauce.
  17. Double everything except the sausage, pasta and parmesan cheese to double the sauce.
