Step by step recipe

Stage 1 - 8 min.

Cook 7.0 oz pasta, then drain and put back in the empty saucepan. Drizzle with a little olive oil, mix, then cover and set aside.

Stage 2 - 5 min.

Heat ½ tablespoon olive oil in a small frying pan on high heat. When hot, add 2.2 oz small pieces of bacon.

Fry until lightly browned.

Stage 3 - 2 min.

When the lardons are nicely done, add 3.5 oz liquid cream and 1 tablespoon French mustard, mix and deglaze the bottom of the pan.

Leave on low heat to thicken.

Stage 4 - 2 min.

Tip the contents of the frying pan into the pasta, mix well and check the seasoning. Reheat gently if necessary.

Stage 5

Serve without delay.

Remarks

A slurp of Noilly Prat in with the cream adds extra interest to the sauce.

You will see that the mustard is an effective thickening agent, meaning you will not have long to wait at stage 3.

Keeping

1 or 2 days in the fridge, covered with plastic film.
