I tried Gordon Ramsay's 15-minute sausage Bolognese pasta. Now, my family makes it for dinner every week.

To whip up this delicious dish, you'll need:

• Dried tagliatelle pasta
• Sausages (Ramsay recommends fennel or Sicilian)
• Tomatoes
• Half an onion
• A few cloves of garlic

If you can't find tagliatelle at your local supermarket, pappardelle always makes for a great substitute.

One of the best parts about this dish is that there's barely any prep. It takes me about five minutes or less to prepare everything before I start cooking.

While Italian parsley isn't part of Ramsay's recipe, I love adding it if I have any lying around. The herb brightens all the flavors and brings a bit of freshness and color to the dish.

One thing I love about this dish is how easily it can be adapted to your preferences — and what you can find in the supermarket. On this night, I used cocktail tomatoes, which have a juiciness that works great in the Bolognese sauce.

You need to peel the casings from the sausages before crumbling the meat. Ramsay recommends slicing each sausage down the middle to help remove the skin.

To avoid burning the onions, I let them cook for a few minutes before adding the garlic and parsley.

Ramsay recommends letting the garlic and onions "sweat until they're soft" before you add the meat.

Don't forget to sprinkle some salt and pepper on top!

The first two times my dad and I made this dish, we thought the sauce was a little dry with just the chopped tomatoes. Tagliatelle and pappardelle noodles are perfect vehicles for thick sauces; they almost seem a little naked without one.

Since we already loved the taste of the pasta, we didn't want to change the recipe drastically. The extra can of crushed tomatoes gives the Bolognese sauce a bit more oomph in taste and texture but still stays true to Ramsay's flavor profile.

My method is always to catch one of the pappardelle ribbons in a ladle, run it over some cold water for a few seconds, and then bite into it to see how firm the noodle is.

I picked up this trick from Ramsay, who notes that the starch from the pasta water helps to thicken the sauce and make it stick to the noodles.

After ensuring the noodles are coated with the sauce, I'll throw some parsley on top.

There's just something about this dish that reminds me of my favorite little Italian restaurant in New York City's West Village neighborhood. The sauce is meaty and rich, the flavors are complex, and each bite floods me with comfort.

My parents have made Ramsay's 15-minute tagliatelle pasta almost every week since we first tried it years ago. My dad loves how much flavor the sausage adds to the Bolognese sauce, and my mom said she always feels "warm inside" when she eats this dish.

"It feels like home," she told me.
