Bacon & mushroom pasta

Credits: bbcgoodfood.com​

Bacon and mushroom pasta is a classic Italian dish that is simple to prepare and can be made with just a few ingredients. The dish is traditionally made with pancetta, a type of Italian bacon that is made from pork belly. It is cured and then diced or sliced. Pancetta has a rich flavour that pairs well with the mushrooms and cheese in this dish. But this dish can also be made with bacon.

The dish is usually made with white mushrooms, but any type of mushroom can be used. Mushrooms are a good source of flavour, and they help to absorb the flavours of bacon and cheese. They also add a bit of texture and body to the dish.

Ingredients:

- 250 grams of penne (or other tube shape) pasta (half a packet)
- 200 grams of pancetta or bacon
- 200 grams of mushrooms
- 1/4 cup of olive oil
- 1/4 cup of Parmesan cheese
- Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

1. Start by cooking the pancetta or bacon in a large pan over medium heat.

2. Once the pancetta or bacon is cooked, add the mushrooms to the pan and cook for a few minutes until they are soft.

3. Add the pasta to the pan and cook according to the package instructions.

4. Once the pasta is cooked, add the olive oil and Parmesan cheese and stir to combine.

5. Season with salt and pepper to taste and serve.

To make this dish extra special, you can add a bit of cream to the dish for a richer flavour. You can also add some chopped parsley or basil for a bit of colour. The dish can be served as a main course or as a side dish.

point 3 is confusing to me. where is says add pasta to pan and cook according to package instructions. Surely it means cook pasta separately and when cooked add to pan? That is what I am doing anyway

Can I have the bacon and mushroom pasta without the mushrooms please!!

I think there s a step missing, shouldn’t the pasta be cooked before adding to the pan with pancetta and mushrooms?

That is what I was alluding to in my post above...yes it is poorly written recipe. If you are not a good cook and followed exactly you would be confused.
