Creamy Bacon Pasta

Serves 4-5, 30-40 min

A simple “mix everything” dish, perfect for those seeking something uncomplicated, quick, and tasty. This is nothing fancy, unhealthy, and great for a hangover. I would be careful about adding extra salt because of the sodium content of the bacon and ham. I prefer not to add salt in the cooking process at all. I think I got this recipe from one of my exes, which is probably the only good thing that came out of that relationship.

Ingredients

• Fusilli pasta: 400g

• Bacon: 170g

• Diced ham: 200g

• Crème fraîche (garlic and herbs flavor): 200g

• Onion: 1 medium

• Cooking cream: 2dl

• Basil & Black pepper

Preparation

1. Cook the fusilli pasta according to the package instructions.

2. While the pasta cooks, chop the bacon into small pieces. Peel and finely chop the onion.

3. In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the onion and bacon pieces until the bacon starts to crisp.

4. Add the ham strips and cook until they heat up or even are lightly browned.

5. Lower the heat and add the crème fraîche and cooking cream to the skillet. Stir to combine and gently heat through, and season to your taste.
