Ingredients:

• 4 bratwurst sausages (casings removed and crumbled)
• 300 g pasta (penne, fettuccine, or your favorite type)
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 medium onion (diced)
• 2 cloves garlic (minced)
• 1/2 cup dried tomatoes (chopped)
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 1/2 cup chicken or vegetable broth
• 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
• 1/2 teaspoon paprika
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• Fresh parsley (chopped, for garnish)

Method:

1. Cook the pasta: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the pasta according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside, reserving a little pasta water in case you need to thin the sauce later.
2. Cook the bratwurst: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the crumbled bratwurst and cook, breaking it up with a spatula, until browned and cooked through (about 7-10 minutes). Transfer the cooked bratwurst to a plate and set aside.
3. Sauté the vegetables: In the same skillet, add the diced onion and cook for 3-4 minutes until softened. Add the garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
4. Add the tomatoes and seasonings: Stir in the chopped dried tomatoes, dried thyme, and paprika. Cook for an additional 2 minutes to let the flavors meld.
