Sauce
Method
1.Preheat oven to moderate, 180°C. Lightly grease six 2 cup ovenproof dishes.
2.Preheat a char-grill pan or barbecue grill on high. Cook sausages and corn 10 minutes, turning on all sides, until cooked through with grill marks. Grill onion 2 minutes each side, until marks appear. Slice sausages into quarters.
3.Meanwhile, in a large saucepan of salted boiling water, cook pasta following packet instructions, until al dente. Drain and return to pan.
4.Make sauce: In a medium saucepan, melt butter on medium heat. Stir in flour, cook 1 minute until bubbling and golden. Remove from heat. Mix in mustard, then gradually whisk in milk, until smooth. Return to heat and cook, stirring until sauce boils and thickens. Simmer 3 minutes. Season.
5.Add sausage and sauce to pasta with half cheese. Mix well and divide between dishes. Slice corn off in chunks (trying to keep pieces in tact).
6.Top dishes evenly with corn, onion and remaining cheese. Bake 12-15 minutes until cheese melts. Sprinkle with 1 tablespoon chives.
7.Toss tomatoes and remaining chives with a little hot sauce and serve with pasta bakes.
Brush or spray corn with a little oil before char-grilling. Use a large sharp knife to remove kernels, slicing close to the cob.
