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

- Basil & Black pepper
Preparation
- Cook the fusilli pasta according to the package instructions.
- While the pasta cooks, chop the bacon into small pieces. Peel and finely chop the onion.
- In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the onion and bacon pieces until the bacon starts to crisp.
- Add the ham strips and cook until they heat up or even are lightly browned.
- 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.
