Orecchiette with Sausage

This was a pretty simple recipe which was nice.  It tasted ok, had a nice amount of spice (I don't like things really spicy, just enough to make my mouth a little warm), really nothing stood out for me with this recipe.

What I liked - Spice level was perfect for me.  Easy preparation, if I had been home this week probably could have made this on one of my work days.  I like pasta. This made enough that my husband got to eat leftovers the next day for lunch (not as good the next day but thats to be expected).

What I didn't like - Not enough brown butter flavor, maybe this was because it got overshadowed by the sausage.  Maybe browing the butter afterward then drizzling over the topped would have help instead of browning the butter them cooking the sausage in it.  The directions for adding the cooking water were a little strange as you have to do it twice.  Lack of vegetables.

My modifications - I think I made this exactly as written.

Overall probably another 3 star recipe.  You may notice I tend to give most things 3 stars, my husband often teases me that I say most things are ok.
