Ingredients

Instructions

1. Cook the pasta in a large pot of boiling water for the packet time minus 1 minute. Just before draining, scoop out 1 cup of the cooking water and set it aside.
2. Heat the oil in a very large skillet over high heat. Add the garlic and cook for 15 seconds.
3. Add the sausage meat, breaking it up, and cook until little golden bits form, about 4 minutes.
4. Add the wine and scrape the bottom of the pan to lift the golden bits. Let the wine evaporate until its winey smell is gone.
5. Add the tomato passata, cream, milk, parmesan, Italian herbs, red pepper flakes, salt and pepper. Stir well, bring to a simmer, then reduce to low and simmer gently for 2 minutes.
6. Add the drained pasta and kale and toss for 1 minute to coat. If the sauce gets too thick, loosen it with some of the reserved pasta water.
7. Serve immediately, topped with freshly grated parmesan.
