Fennel and pork pappardelle

Method

1. Squeeze the meat from the sausages. Slice the fennel bulb in half lengthways, then cut into 1cm slices lengthways.
2. Heat the olive oil in a large, deep frying pan over a medium-high heat, add the fennel and sausagemeat, then fry, stirring often, for 15-20 minutes, breaking up the meat into chunks. The fennel should be tender with bite; the meat should be browned.
3. Meanwhile, put a large pot of salted water on to boil. Add the chicken stock to the fennel mix and bubble on a high heat for 3 minutes.
4. Finely chop the thyme, parsley and rosemary. Add to the pan with the double cream and the zest, then season.
5. Cook the pappardelle in the boiling water for 2-3 minutes until tender. Drain (reserving a good splash of the water), then gently mix the pasta through the sauce, adding a little lemon juice and pasta water if needed.
