Turkey Sausage Ragu

This delicious Sausage Ragu is made with turkey sausages for a lower fat alternative to a family favourite meal!

Turkey Sausage Ragu

For the past few years I’ve been making this Sausage Ragu Recipe and the kids absolutely love it. Using regular pork sausages, the calorie and fat content can be a bit high so I decided to make another version, this time using turkey sausages and also with some added veggies.

These are the Turkey Sausages that I used. I buy them in Sainsburys. You could also use Chicken Sausages too, they would be equally as delicious!

Turkey Sausages

For my portion, I served the ragu with 75g of cooked tagliatelle and then filled the rest of the bowl up with salad leaves. So delicious and super filling!

For the kids I mixed the ragu with the tagliatelle and served just as it is with some parmesan shavings on top.

Description

This delicious Sausage Ragu is made with turkey sausages for a lower fat alternative to a family favourite meal!


Ingredients

  • 8 turkey sausages (450g)
  • ½ tbsp oil
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 2 garlic cloves, crushed
  • 2 carrots, diced
  • 1 celery stalk, diced
  • 1 tin chopped tomatoes
  • 300ml chicken stock
  • 1 tbsp tomato puree
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1 tbsp parmesan shavings

To serve:

  • cooked tagliatelle 

Instructions

  1. Remove the skins from the sausages and place them aside in a bowl.
  2. Heat the oil in a large frying pan and add the onion, garlic, carrots and celery.
  3. Cook for 3-4 minutes until the vegetables start to soften.
  4. Add the sausage meat and cook for another 2-3 minutes.
  5. Add the chopped tomatoes, chicken stock, tomato puree and oregano. 
  6. Bring to the boil then simmer for 15-20 minutes.
  7. In the meantime cook some tagliatelle.
  8. When ready, serve the ragu with tagliatelle and some parmesan shavings on top.
  9. For my portion I usually eat 75g of cooked tagliatelle and add some salad to the side too.

Notes

This recipe is ideal for batch cooking. Make a double batch of the ragu and freeze for another day.

The calories per portion served with 75g of cooked pasta is 389 calories per portion. Calorie and other nutritional info is approximate only. If you need more exact figures please calculate these yourself.

    I used chicken sausages and it worked really well. I used the Tesco ones and it was a really tasty dinner.
