Ingredients

Wholewheat Pasta

Single cream

4 X Slices Back Bacon

2 cloves garlic

White wine

Salt & Pepper

Lemon Juice

Directions

Put the pasta on to boil.

Crush the garlic, put it into a little oil in a frying pan.

Slice the bacon into thin strips or 'Lardon style'.

Once the oil has heated and the garlic is sizzling, add the bacon - dont shake the pan as this releases the water and boils the bacon, rather than frying it.

Once you have crisp, golden bacon, slosh a little bit of white wine into the pan, to 'deglaze it' and infuse all the flavour.

Then add about 50mls of cream, and stir alltogether. Simmer for a few minutes, and reduce down.

Taste. If salt is needed, add a very small amount, and approx quater a teaspoon of pepper and a dash of lemon.

Drain the pasta but not all the way, leave a little bit of water on the pasta so it looks glossy.

Add the sauce to the pasta, mix all together and serve.

Great recipe! These are the kind of pasta recipes I love. Few, simple ingredients but you know it is going to taste amazing. Great tip on the bacon re shaking the pan. Never knew that but when I think about it my bacon always boils a bit before it gets down to frying and browning! I do use the little bit of pasta water tip -- it helps to make the dish a little bit saucier too! Great, great post. Thank you for sharing!

Hey.... What is "Lardon Style"??? I would really like to make this recipe, but I'm not quite sure. Sounds delicious-o, however. ;D

Lardon style, is basically cut up into small chunks/strips and if you buy them from a store, they are already fried in garlic.

Thanks both of you for your great comments xx
