Rustic Tomato Sauce with Sausage

Ingredients:

• 1 pound penne pasta
• 3 tablespoons butter
• 1 small onion
• 1 clove garlic
• 14-ounce can of plum tomatoes
• salt and pepper to taste
• 1 1/2 cups white wine
• 1 cup of peas
• sausage

Directions:

1. Melt butter and add the chopped onion and garlic.  Add the tomatoes with their juice.  Season with salt and pepper. Cook for 20 minutes.
2. Meanwhile, prick the sausages and cook them gently in the wine in a separate pan.  When they are cooked, strain their liquid into the tomatoes.  Take off the skin of the sausages and slice them into rounds. 
3. Cook the pasta.  Be careful not to over cook them.  Add the peas to the tomato sauce and cook until just tender.  Before draining the pasta add the sausage to the sauce.  Drain the pasta, turn into a warm serving dish and stir in the sauce.  Serve at once.
