House Sugo at Home

House Sugo at Home

I’ve been meaning to post this recipe for months and something always seems to come before it!! So without further ado….I discovered my favourite restaurant of all time, Sugo Pasta Kitchen, some years back when we lived in Manchester and after I tasted their House

I was originally going to post this new recipe a little later in the year but after seeing how well my last Korean recipe went down, and knowing a few of you have already bought the gochujung paste, I thought I would bring this recipe

One of my OH’s conditions for me getting my beautiful puppy was that we would have ‘curry Sundays’ which to be fair, we have mostly stuck too (with the exception of last night!).

This recipe may look a bit daunting as it takes a while to cook; however, it’s actually very easy to prepare and, once in the oven, can basically be left to bubble away until it’s perfect. The smells coming out of the kitchen while it’s cooking are incredible. This would be a great meal for a dinner party as everything can just be whacked in the middle of the table with lots of it prepared in advance. The calories below are just for the chilli as there is such a variety of accompaniments you could try. I like to serve it with the fresh salsa, a dollop of guacamole, light sour cream and a small portion of rice and that’s usually enough for me. Alternatively, for a few extra calories you could have it with a wrap (à la burrito) or with taco shells and a nice green salad. If you do add to the recipe, be sure to include the extra calories
