Mushroom, Bacon and Fennel Pasta Recipe

Mushroom, Bacon and Fennel Pasta is one of my favourites recipes. The bacon, mushroom and pasta go so well together but add fennel and so amazing. Served as a main dish throughout the year. It is very popular young and old. Also, the cost of making it is very reasonable. I love to use fettuccine but fusilli, conchiglie, spaghetti are all as tasty.

Instructions

  • Place a large pot of water on a high heat. Add a good pinch of salt and bring to the boil.
  • Place a frying pan over a medium high heat and add the streaky bacon to render the fat. Fry for about 5 minutes until the bacon is cooked but soft and the fat is in the pan.
  • Remove the bacon from the bacon and put to one side for now.
  • Add the fennel to the bacon fat together with the chopped onion and fry for about 15 minutes until soft.
  • Add the garlic and chill and cook for a further minute or so. You don’t want the garlic to burn.
  • Add the puree and fry for another five minutes.
  • Once the water has boiled, add the pasta and cook according to the packs instructions.
  • Finally add the mushrooms to the frying pan, stir and put the lid on until the mushrooms have softened. Should be 5 – 8 minutes.
  • Once the pasta is cooked, place a mug into the sink, sieve above it and drain the water. The starchy water is superb should the sauce need thinning.
  • Once drained, add the pasta to the sauce and stir well to cover the pasta.
  • Serve immediately with a sprinkling of cheese.
