Method

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 200°C (180°C fan). Cook the fusilli for 2 minutes less than packet instructions, then drain.

  2. 2

    Dice the chorizo and finely chop the onion. Heat the oil in a large pan and fry the chorizo for 3 minutes until it releases its oil.

  3. 3

    Add the onion and soften for 5 minutes. Stir in the paprika, then add the passata and drained butter beans. Simmer for 5 minutes.

  4. 4

    Stir in the drained pasta and tip into a greased ovenproof dish.

  5. 5

    Scatter the cheddar over the top and bake for 20 minutes until golden and bubbling.
