Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Cook the Pasta

    In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add the cavatappi pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Sausage

    In a skillet over medium heat, cook the longganissa sausage until browned and crumbled. Remove from heat and set aside.

  3. 3

    Make the Cheese Sauce

    In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. Stir in the flour and cook for an additional minute to form a roux.

  4. 4

    Add Milk and Cheese

    Gradually whisk in the milk, stirring constantly until the mixture thickens. Stir in the lemon juice, salt, black pepper, and grated Parmesan cheese until smooth.

  5. 5

    Combine Everything

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked cavatappi, sausage crumbles, and cheese sauce. Mix well to ensure all the pasta is coated.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Transfer the mixture to a serving dish, sprinkle with additional Parmesan cheese if desired, and serve warm.
