Water for the Sauce
a) Boil a full kettle.
b) Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press). Finely chop the chives (use scissors if easier).
a) Meanwhile, heat a drizzle of oil in a large frying pan on high heat.
b) Once hot, add the bacon lardons and mushrooms to the pan. Season with salt and pepper and fry, stirring occasionally, until browned, 5-6 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and utensils after handling raw meat. Cook it thoroughly.
a) Once the mushrooms are browned, lower the heat to medium-high and stir in the garlic, 30 secs.
b) Pour in the water for the sauce (see pantry for amount), creme fraiche and wild mushroom paste. TIP: If your wild mushroom paste has hardened, pop it in a bowl of hot water for 1 min.
c) Bring the sauce to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer until thickened, 2-3 mins. Remove from the heat.
a) Meanwhile, pour the boiled water from the kettle into a saucepan with 1/2 tsp salt and bring back to the boil.
b) When boiling, add the filled pasta to the water and bring back to the boil. Cook until tender, 3 mins.
c) Once cooked, drain in a colander. Drizzle with oil and gently stir through to stop it sticking together.
a) Once thickened, add the cheese and half the chives to the mushroom sauce and stir to combine. Taste and season with salt and pepper if needed. Add a splash of water if it's a little thick.
b) Gently stir the cooked pasta through your creamy sauce.
a) Divide the filled pasta between your bowls and spoon over any remaining creamy bacon and mushroom sauce.
b) Serve the baby leaf salad alongside and drizzle over a little olive oil.
c) Drizzle the balsamic glaze over your pasta and salad. Sprinkle over the remaining chives.
Enjoy!
