Bacon and Capsicum Fettuccine Bake

ingredients

  • 5 bacon rashers, sliced
  • 1 brown onion, diced
  • 2 large capsicums, diced
  • 4 garlic cloves, crushed
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 600ml cream
  • 500g San Remo fettuccine
  • 1 ball fresh mozzarella, grated
  • ½ cup parmesan cheese

method

  1. Preheat the oven to 180°C.
  2. Fry the bacon, onion, capsicum and garlic until lightly softened. Season well, then pour in the cream and let it simmer until it thickens slightly.
  3. Meanwhile, cook the fettuccine until about ¾ done. Scoop out 2 ladles of pasta water and stir them into the cream sauce.
  4. In a baking dish, start layering: pasta, sauce, mozzarella. Repeat until you reach the top, then finish with a generous sprinkle of parmesan.
  5. Bake for 20 minutes until golden and bubbling.
