Method
-
1
Cook the pasta following the package directions. Dice the onion fine, soften it in 1 teaspoon of the oil in a small saucepan, then add the passata and simmer 10 minutes.
-
2
Cut the bologna into four thick rounds. Put flour, beaten egg and breadcrumbs in three shallow dishes and coat each round in that order, pressing the crumbs on gently.
-
3
Heat the remaining oil in a skillet over medium heat and fry the rounds 2–3 minutes per side, until the coating is golden and the sausage is hot throughout.
-
4
Drain the rounds on a rack. Toss the pasta with the sauce, divide among plates and top with the crisp rounds.
