Black pudding (and possibly sausage) pasta

This one is not a looker, but for tastiness its a 5 star.


Ingredients
1 onion, diced
100g of black pudding, cut into chunks or 2 sausages per person or both
1 small courgette, cut into chunks
1 clove of garlic, crushed
1 tin of plum tomatoes
1 teaspoon of tomato paste
Dried herbs such as Thyme, Sage, half a teaspoon of each (or 1 teaspoon of mixed herbs)
Half a teaspoon of cayenne pepper and paprika
Salt & Pepper
Parmesan to serve


Method
Sweat the onions in a large pan over a medium heat for around 5 mins. Add in the black pudding and sausages. Allow the sausages to colour before adding in the courgette and garlic. Fry for a further 3 mins, to allow the garlic to release its fragrance. Then add in the tomatoes, tomato paste, herbs and spices. Stir, breaking up the plum tomatoes as you go. Allow to simmer for 10 mins. Serve hot over freshly cooked pasta.
