Gutsy Pasta

Updated: Dec 17, 2020



Serves 4

20 minutes


Ingredients


Linguine 400g

Onions 2, finely chopped

Garlic 4 large cloves, crushed

Bacon 6 slices, chopped into small pieces

Button mushrooms 180g, sliced

Green olives 80g

Capers 40g

Parsley 80g

Olive oil plenty


Method


  1. Very finely chop the 2 onions and heat 1 tbsp oil in a large pan.

  2. Fry the onions over a medium heat, stirring frequently so they don't catch. Put a pan of salted water on to boil.

  3. When the onions are translucent crush in the garlic and add the bacon and stir. Add the linguine to the water.

  4. Stir the onion mix frequently, and after 5 minutes, when the bacon has started to take on some colour, add the sliced mushrooms. Add more oil if needed.

  5. When the pasta is all dente chuck the olives, capers and parsley to the onion mix and stir through. Season well with a large pinch of salt and 20 grinds of pepper.

  6. Drain the pasta and add to the bits with 2 tablespoons of olive oil.

  7. Stir though to distribute the bits evenly, then serve with a grating of parmesan.

  8. Eat and enjoy!
