Ingredients for 4 servings
- 320g of Cravattine 60 Agnesi
- 200g Italian sausage, casing removed
- 1 medium zucchini, diced
- 1 Tropea onion, thinly sliced
- 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 50ml dry white wine
- 2 tbsp freshly grated Parmesan cheese
- 50g toasted pine nuts
- 40g grated Pecorino Romano
- 1 clove garlic
- 3 extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tbsp water (if needed)
- to taste salt and freshly ground black pepper

- Prepare the sausage pesto: In a food processor, blend the crumbled Italian sausage, garlic, and a few basil leaves until smooth. Add a spoonful of olive oil to achieve a creamy pesto consistency. Set aside.
- Cook the onions and zucchini: Heat the olive oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the chopped Tropea onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in the sliced zucchini and cook for an additional 5–7 minutes, until tender. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
- Cook the pasta: Boil the Agnesi Cravattine in a large pot of salted water until al dente. Reserve about 100ml of pasta water, then drain.
- Combine everything: Add the drained pasta to the pan with the onions and zucchini. Stir in the sausage pesto and mix well. If necessary, add a splash of reserved pasta water to create a silky sauce.
