Penne Alfredo with Bacon and Sundried Tomato


Penne Alfredo with Bacon and Sundried Tomato
Ingredients
  • 10.6 oz (300g) Penne Pasta
  • 1 1/4 cups (300ml) Heavy Cream
  • 2 tbsp Unsalted Butter
  • 5 oz (150g) Streaky Bacon, chopped
  • 1/2 cup (50g) Parmesan, grated (save some to sprinkle on top)
  • 3/4 cup (75g) Sundried Tomato, sliced
  • 1 tsp Garlic, minced
  • Handful of Fresh Basil, chopped (save some to sprinkle on top)
  • Salt & Cracked Black Pepper, to taste

Method
  1. Pop your pasta in a pot of boiling water and cook until al dente. Retain a cup of starchy pasta water.
  2. Meanwhile, fry your Bacon over medium heat until it begins to crisp, then add your Tomatoes and fry a little longer until they soften. Drain excess fat/oil if there's too much, add the Garlic and fry for a minute until fragrant, then add the Butter and stir until melted.
  3. Pour in your Cream and sprinkle in your Basil. Stir to a smooth consistency, leaving to simmer on a low heat. When it just starts to thicken add in your Parmesan.
  4. Once the sauce has fully thickened (8-10 mins) taste for seasoning, then add in your pasta and toss until coated. Simmer for a few minutes to soak up the sauce, stirring throughout and using your pasta water to thin out if it becomes too thick and gloopy.
  5. Serve with and extra sprinkle of Parmesan and Basil!
