Preparation
1
Cook Pasta

  • Boil a full kettle. Pour it into a saucepan with 1/2 tsp salt on high heat.
  • Boil the spaghetti, 8 mins. 
  • Once cooked, drain and pop back in the pan. Drizzle with oil and stir through to stop it sticking together.

2
Bacon Time

  • Meanwhile, heat a drizzle of oil in a frying pan on medium-high heat.
  • Fry the bacon, 4-5 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and utensils after handling raw meat. Cook bacon thoroughly.

3
Sauce Up

  • Next, drain any excess fat from the pan. Pop back on medium-high heat (no need to clean).
  • Stir in the veg stock, creme fraiche and water (see pantry). Simmer, 2-3 mins.
  • Stir the cooked pasta to the sauce. Mix to combine.
  • Remove from the heat.

4
Dinner's Ready!

  • Stir the peas, pesto and two thirds of the hard Italian style cheese into the pasta. Toss to coat.
  • Share between your bowls.
  • Sprinkle over the remaining cheese to finish.

Enjoy!
