What you'll need:
- 1 tsp olive oilÂ
- 150g of Cookstown unsmoked back bacon Â
- 1 garlic clove, crushedÂ
- handful freshly grated parmesanÂ
- 1 small tub (200g) low-fat crème fraîcheÂ
- 300g tagliatelleÂ
Method:
STEP 1Â
Heat the olive oil in a large frying pan and sizzle the bacon for about 5 mins until starting to crisp. Add the garlic and cook for a minute longer. Season and set aside.Â
STEP 2Â
Cook the tagliatelle according to the pack instructions and scoop out a cupful of cooking water. Drain the tagliatelle and tip into the frying pan with the bacon. Over a low heat toss everything together with the crème fraiche and half the Parmesan adding a splash of pasta water too if you need to loosen the sauce. Season to taste and serve twirled into bowls with the remaining Parmesan scattered over.Â
