Broccoli and sausage spaghetti

Method

• Step 1
  Cool the spaghetti in a saucepan of boiling water following packet directions or until al dente. Add the broccoli in the last 2 mins of cooking. Drain well, reserving ½ cup (125ml) of cooking liquid. Return the spaghetti to the pan.
• Step 2
  Meanwhile, process the basil, almonds, parmesan, garlic and half the rocket in a food processor until finely chopped. With the motor running, gradually add the oil in a thin, steady stream. Season with salt and pepper.
• Step 3
  Heat a large non-stick frying pan over high heat. Add the sausages and cook, breaking up with a wooden spoon, for 4 mins or until brown all over. Add the tomatoes and cook, tossing, for 2 mins or until tomatoes begin to soften.
• Step 4
  Add the sausage mixture, remaining rocket and pesto to the spaghetti and toss to combine. Divide among serving bowls. Top with extra parmesan.
