This deliciously simple sausage pasta bake recipe from Marcello Tully is beautifully colourful with vibrant peppers and cherry tomatoes, with a meaty hit from chipolata sausages. Anchovies are used to add wonderful seasoning to the dish, and will melt into the overall bake as it cooks.

When Brazilian-born chef Marcello Tully started his career at fourteen, he may not have anticipated working on the starkly beautiful island of Skye – but then he probably didn’t expect to be crafting some of the most exquisitely refined Scottish-influenced food on the planet, either.
