INGREDIENTS

2 1/2 ounces Pasta ; any type you fancy
2 rashers Bacon
1 small Leek ; washed and chopped
1/2 tablespoon olive oil
1 pinch Salt
1 pinch Black pepper
Parmesan ; to serve

INSTRUCTIONS

Cut the bacon into small pieces and fry in a little oil on a medium to high heat. Once the bacon begins to brown, add the leeks and allow them to soften.

Meanwhile begin cooking the pasta in slightly salted boiling water.

Once the pasta is cooked drain and return to the pan, season the bacon, and leek to taste and combine with the pasta.

Drizzle a little extra virgin olive oil over the pasta to moisten.

Finally grate the parmesan cheese over the dish and serve.

NOTES

If you would prefer a creamy sauce, add cream instead of olive oil.
Did you know, Leeks are a great of Vitamin C, iron and fibre and that 1 cup of chopped raw leeks contains only 57 calories?
