Sausage Pasta | Gennaro Contaldo | Italian Special
This my friends, is Italian pasta cooking at it’s best! A few simple main ingredients including; sausages, cima di rapa, garlic and chilli. If you don’t have cima di rapa don't be put off, just try with broccoli instead. Whether you are feeding the farmer or the family, this is such a simple dish that is perfect to knock up during the week.
Gennaro in Italy
Over the coming months we will posting a series of Gennaro’s recipes from Italy, some of which you, the audience, have specifically asked for and others are Gennaro doing what the Italians do best – sourcing good ingredients and making simple, bold dishes with little effort and time involved.
Rather than cut these videos right down, we have left them a little longer and kept them relaxed. We think watching Gennaro in Italy is a glorious thing, and Gennaro does such a great job at being both inspiring and entertaining. So sit back and enjoy these as they roll out – we would love to know what you think.

How to Make CAVATELLI PASTA from Scratch
Homemade cavatelli are eggless, oval-shaped pasta shells with a gap through the middle which is great for capturing the sauce. This pasta, originally from Puglia and Molise is still made by hand all over the region – especially by talented Nonna’s who have been perfecting the shape for years!

How to Make CAVATELLI PASTA from Scratch
INGREDENTS (for 3-4 people)
300ml/1.26 cups warm water
500g/17.63oz semolina flour
UTENSILS
Wooden bench
Fork
Rolling pin OR pasta machine
Knife/Pastry cutter
Butter knife
Cooling rack
METHOD:
Cavatelli pasta are best made using semolina flour, so start with 500g/17.63oz for a portion of 4.
Pour 500g/17.63oz semolina on a wooden bench, create a well, add water, a little bit at a time and mix into the semolina pinching the sides in, then mixing it through, to create a paste-like consistency.
Repeat this until the semolina pasta dough for your cavatelli has completely absorbed the water.
Start to knead the dough to bring it altogether and help improve the consistency.
When kneading, press using the palm of your hand, toward the front, fold back then repeat this motion.
Add more water if it feels too dry and keep kneading.
If the cavatelli dough feels sticky, add another sprinkle of semolina flour and knead through.
Let it rest for 10-15 minutes.
How to roll out the homemade CAVATELLI PASTA
After your pasta dough has rested, check that it is soft and smooth then cut a piece and roll it out into a snake-like shape, using one hand to start with and then stretching it out with both.
VINCENZO’S PLATE TIP: If your homemade cavatelli dough is a little sticky, sprinkle some semolina on your bench and then stretch the dough out on top of it.
Now, cut this into small pillows, similar to gnocchi, using your knife on an angle.
Using your knife, create the homemade cavatelli by pressing down on each pillow, and rolling it back.
Once it is rolled around the edge of the knife, remove it and it should retain its shape as a cavatelli by closing back in through the middle.
If you have a special board with ridges, you can also roll the homemade cavatelli on this using your finger, but I prefer just a simple knife! These are known as “Cavatelli Rigati”
Even simpler, you can use your finger to press down and roll back each pillow and this will also create the homemade cavatelli shape.
To dry the pasta, place it on top of a cooling rack (or similar), leaving a small gap in between each one.
Dry the pasta for a few hours at room temperature.
VINCENZO’S PLATE TIP: Dry the pasta in an area where the sunlight hits your bench during the day.
HOW TO SERVE:
Boil a large pot of water, add a pinch of sea salt and pasta then cook for 10-20 minutes (cooking time dependent upon the thickness and drying time).

Cavatelli Casserole - Instant Pot dinner in under 10 minutes!
Once again we're stepping into Rose's kitchen. Today for dinner we're having cavatelli casserole, a pasta dish made with sausage, peppers, onions, garlic, and tomato sauce. We had this prepped and made in under 10 minutes using our Instant Pot. Let us know how your cavatelli casserole turns out.
Rose admits this dish was inspired by a similar one from the Pizza Hut menu over 20 years ago! She thought it was so good, she went looking for the recipe. Unable to find the exact recipe, she came up with her own and this delicious crowd favorite was born.
Cavatelli Casserole -
3-4 kinds of pasta (about 2- 2 1/2 c. total)
1 lb. sweet sausage
1 lb. hot sausage
pepperoni cut in half to desired amount
2 green peppers, chopped
1 large onion, chopped
6 mushrooms, sliced (optional)
3 c. spaghetti sauce + 1 c. water if using IP
1/2 c. shredded mozzarella cheese
Stove top directions:
Cook pasta in boiling water, uncovered, until al dente. Drain well.
Crumble and cook meats together with small amount of water in skillet until no longer pink. If the meat starts to crisp add water. Toss in prepared peppers and onions and cook until just softened.
In pot, combine pasta, meats including pepperoni, cooked vegetables, mushrooms, and sauce. Transfer to 9x13 inch baking dish. Top with cheese.
Bake immediately in preheated 350oF oven for 15-20 minutes. Or refrigerate and bake when ready to use. Bake cold pasta 45-50 minutes or until bubbly.
Instant Pot directions:
Saute sausages with 1/2 c. water until no longer pink, continue to crumble into small pieces. Press cancel. Add prepped onions and peppers and stir until combined with cooked meats. Add in dry pasta and sauce with additional 1 cup water. Stir making sure pasta is evenly distributed and ‘covered’. Top with pepperoni and mushrooms (if using).
Put lid on IP and seal. Choose High pressure for 6 minutes.
After IP beeps, allow to (NR) Naturally Release for 2 minutes then (QR) Quick Release (may take up to 5 minutes more). Stir casserole well and top with cheese.
