Method

  1. 1

    Heat the oven to 200°C (180°C fan). Heat the oil in a large ovenproof pan. Brown the sausages for 8 minutes, turning, then lift out and cut into chunks.

  2. 2

    In the same pan, cook the onion and pepper for 6 minutes. Add the garlic and paprika for 1 minute.

    Pour in the passata and oregano and add the sausage back. Simmer for 10 minutes. Season well.

    Meanwhile, boil the pasta in salted water for 2 minutes less than the packet says. Gluten free pasta turns soft quickly, so keep an eye on it. Drain.

  5. 5

    Stir the pasta into the sauce and add a splash of the pasta water if it looks dry. Tip into a baking dish if your pan is not ovenproof.

  6. 6

    Top with the mozzarella and cheddar. Bake for 20 minutes until golden and bubbling.
