Shitty pics but I’m posting the recipe in the comments, this is one of my all time favourite pasta dishes, so hearty, packed full of flavour, texture and totally warming and delicious. The ultimate comfort dinner.

The “hardest part” is simply chopping up all the veggies and hand-mixing it up with sausage meat and herbs, the rest comes together easy peasy. Cook the pork mix kinda high and for a while until it’s crispy and starts to stick to the pan; the liquids will deglaze it until it’s silky and the pans “clean”. It’s always a hit! Special shout out to the fennel seeds and balsamic vinegar which make this dish so zingy, fresh and tasty. Never had an empty plate after serving this, it’s a must try!!!

    Not sure where the “hi” came from in the title, but hi

    I’m curious why you’d need to hand mix the meat into the veggies. Why not just throw it in the pan?

    Glad the dish came out perfect for you.

    Jamie scares me..lol. Seen him do too much weird stuff to dishes.

    Jamie Oliver can’t cook. Stop following his recipes.

  6. I have made this pasta for some time. In Jamies video version I watched, the veggies are thrown into a food processor and pulsed first to break them down. Then the sausage is thrown in and pulsed a couple of times to mix. This makes the prep time minimal.

    The concept sounds gross, and I’d have loved to see the pasta mixed with the sauce, but otherwise good work.

    Jamie is a funny character.
    On face value, I’d understand why people would distrust him. He is a brand and has to try and be all things to all people.

    However, his Jamie’s Italy and Jamie Cooks Italy books, and accompanying television series are the best work he has done. They’re really well-researched and his passion for genuine and authentic Italian food, that he has had since his River Cafe days, really comes through.

    I’d really advise the cynics to pick these two up.
