Kabana

[braided-rug]

Kabana is a sausage you can eat with cheese etc. I have some in the fridge. Usually we use it to make paella. We have no bbq chicken so I have to use it for something else. Yes, I know we could eat it for afternoon tea.

Pasta Alajamala


Serves 2

You need:
1 kabana, sliced
6 thick slices of ham, sliced into bite sized pieces

Method:
Cook the pasta as per instructions.

In a frying pan, toss in the onion and fry in butter for a minute before adding in the kabana and ham.

When the kabana is browned and the ham heated through, turn the heat down low and stir through the cream and cheese, being careful not to bring to the boil.

Drain the pasta and stir into the sauce
