Step by step recipe


Stage 1 - 8 min.
Pasta with mustard-cream sauce
Cook 400 g 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.
Pasta with mustard-cream sauce
Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a small frying pan on high heat. When hot, add 125 g small pieces of bacon.

Fry until lightly browned.

Stage 3 - 2 min.
Pasta with mustard-cream sauce
When the lardons are nicely done, add 200 g liquid cream and 2 tablespoons Mustard, mix and deglaze the bottom of the pan.

Leave on low heat to thicken.

Stage 4 - 2 min.
Pasta with mustard-cream sauce
Tip the contents of the frying pan into the pasta, mix well and check the seasoning. Reheat gently if necessary.

Stage 5
Pasta with mustard-cream sauce
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.
