Step-by-step

  1. Slice the chorizo into bite-sized pieces. Add to a frying pan over a medium heat and cook until crispy.

  3. Start cooking the linguine (follow the instructions on the packet).
  4. Meanwhile, bubble the sauce down until it's nice and thick, then throw in the chopped basil and season well with salt and pepper.
  5. Drain your pasta and pour it into the sauce. Mix everything together and serve, with a drizzle of olive oil and the basil leaves scattered on top.
