Pasta with cream, asparagus, and sausage is a delicious and easy-to-make main course. For this recipe, I prefer short pasta (in this case, I used half sleeves), but of course, you can use any pasta you like. Living in the countryside, I usually take the opportunity to pick asparagus and stock up for the year; my favorites are the wild ones. This pasta with asparagus and sausage is the perfect union between winter nostalgics and those who love spring, a succulent main course that will please everyone at the table!

Steps
To make the pasta with cream, asparagus, and sausage, wash the asparagus, dry them, and clean them by removing the end of the stalk and the outer layer; then cut them in half lengthwise.
Boil the asparagus in plenty of salted boiling water. Once cooked, place them in a colander.
In a pan, over low heat, sauté the chopped onion with a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil. Add the crumbled sausage and brown it.
Also add the asparagus, a ladle of hot water, season with salt and pepper, and cook for 8/10 minutes. Finally, incorporate the cream.
Cook the pasta in plenty of salted boiling water; once cooked (preferably al dente) drain it and add it to the pan with the sauce.
Stir to mix all the ingredients well until you get a creamy sauce.
Serve hot and enjoy your meal!
