SWEET ITALIAN SAUSAGE WITH RED GRAVY AND PASTA



Sweet Italian Sausage With Red Gravy and Pasta image

This is one of my husband's family's recipes. It's simple and doesn't require much prep time, especially if you use a food processor to cut the onion and celery. Seasoning amounts are approximate, though I don't recommend shorting the sugar. The gravy (I would call it sauce, but the family insists on "gravy" ) should be sweet and basil-heavy to complement the flavors of the sausages.

Time 1h5m

Yield 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 (19 1/2 ounce) packages sweet Italian turkey sausage
1 tablespoon olive oil
3/4 cup diced celery
1/2 cup diced onion
1 (46 ounce) can tomato juice
2 (6 ounce) cans tomato paste
2 (6 ounce) cans water
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can diced tomatoes with onion garlic and basil
1/2 cup sugar (may need as much as 1 cup to sweeten the gravy appropriately)
1 1/2 tablespoons dried basil
1 1/2 teaspoons italian seasoning
1 teaspoon parsley flakes
1 teaspoon salt
1 dash pepper
1 (14 1/2 ounce) box thin whole wheat spaghetti

Steps:

  • Warm olive oil in a skillet over medium heat while dicing onion and celery. Sauté vegetables until onions turn clear. Remove from heat.
  • In a large pot (6 qt or larger, I use an 8 qt stock pot) over medium-low heat, combine tomato juice, tomato paste, water, diced tomatoes, onion, celery, sugar, and seasonings.
  • Heat gravy to a boil (shouldn't need to raise heat above medium) and add sausages; boil for about 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Prepare pasta according to package directions and drain. Spoon a small amount of gravy over pasta (in its own pot) and stir gently to help prevent sticking.
  • Serving size is roughly a cup of pasta, one sausage, and about 3/4 cup gravy.
