1 Heat oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add onion and fry until the onion is translucent, about 4–5 minutes. Add garlic and fennel seeds and cook for another minute.

2 Squeeze chunks of sausage meat into the pan and cook another 4–5 minutes — or until browned.

3 Bring a large pot of salted water to the boil and add the spaghetti. Cook for 10–12 minutes, or until pasta is al dente.

4 About 3 minutes before the pasta is ready, add the broccoli and the peas to the pot. Drain pasta, broccoli and peas, making sure you hold onto about a cup of the cooking water.

5 Stir spaghetti and vegetables into the sausage mixture, stir through lemon juice and chilli flakes, and add a little of the cooking liquid if needed.

6 Serve in pasta bowls and top with parmesan and parsley if you have some.
