Sweet Corn Cream Sauce with Chorizo on Pasta

After a long drive you need some comfort food. Pasta is one of them.



A sauce is always the star of any pasta dish. Since I was not out getting groceries on my way home, i checked for staples. A medium can of sweet corn is a basic ingredient. Combining that with onion and garlic is a good start in the right direction. 



For seasoning I used "Balkans" favourite: VEGETA and lots of fresh ground pepper. The creamyness came from pasta water, a stick blender and a good helping of creme fraiche.



The short pasta was folded in and fresh chives for some green deco.



A while ago I bought a mild Chorizo sausage. That is a keeper for month in the fridge. I cut off a couple of slices and they went in a dry pan to crisp up and loose some bright red fat. They were the topping on the pasta.



Ingredients:

200 g short pasta

200 g can sweet corn, drained

1 tbsp butter

1 medium yellow onion

3 garlic cloves

2 tsp Vegeta

Pepper

4 tbsp creme fraiche

Chives

80 g mild chorizo
