# Duck Sausage and Pesto Rosso Cavatelli Recipe | Made In - Made In

Chef Alex Tubero of New York City-based restaurant Amali shared one of his go-to pasta recipes with homemade sausage to liven up your next pasta night.

Chef Alex Tubero of Amali in New York City is full of pasta inspiration. If you are looking to try something new for your pasta nights, this take on pesto pasta with sausage is sure to be a hit. Tubero uses the lesser-known pesto rosso, made with sweet piquillo peppers, two kinds of nuts, and olives, along with the typical basil and parsley. The homemade sausage is made from duck instead of pork and features fennel seed and chili flake. At Amali, Chef Tubero uses only fresh pasta. You can source fresh cavatelli from Eataly or he suggests dry orecchiette.

  
Cook your pasta in your Pasta Insert Set before transferring it to a Stainless Clad Saucier filled with the sauce. This will give your dish that restaurant-quality silkiness that comes from letting the pasta finish cooking in the sauce and adding in some starchy water to bring it all together.  You will have leftovers of both the duck sausage and the pesto rosso, which will each keep for a week in the fridge, but can either be frozen or pared down.
