Ingredients

How to make it

  • Cut the bacon into small pieces and fry in a little oil on a medium to high heat. Once the bacon begins to brown, add the leeks and allow them to soften.
  • Meanwhile begin cooking the pasta in slightly salted boiling water.
  • Once the pasta is cooked drain and return to the pan, season the bacon, and leek to taste and combine with the pasta.
  • Drizzle a little extra virgin olive oil over the pasta to moisten.
  • Finally grate the parmesan cheese over the dish and serve.
  • If you would prefer a creamy sauce, add cream instead of olive oil.
  • Did you know, Leeks are a great of Vitamin C, iron and fibre and that 1 cup of chopped raw leeks contains only 57 calories?

    I made this last night, using Linguine and adding a cream sauce and some sliced chicken on top. How marvelous! Leeks are amazing and once you add bacon, it's pure magic. Thanks for the tasty dish!\

    I made this tonight, it was really easy and very tasty. I also added some mushrooms and finished it with some ricotta cheese and lots of pepper.
