Cooking Steps

Cook the fusilli
1

• Boil the kettle. 
• Finely chop garlic.
• Half-fill a large saucepan with boiling water and add a generous pinch of salt. Cook fusilli over high heat until ‘al dente’, 11 minutes.
• Reserve some pasta water (see ingredients). Drain fusilli, then return to the saucepan. 

TIP: ‘Al dente’ pasta is cooked through but still slightly firm in the centre. 

Start the sauce
2

• When the pasta has 5 minutes cook time remaining, heat a large frying pan over a medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil.
• Cook streaky bacon and sliced leek, breaking up with a spoon, until golden, 4-5 minutes. 
• Add garlic and classic roast seasoning and cook until fragrant, 1-2 minutes.

Little cooks: Older kids, help add the seasoning to the saucepan under adult supervision. Be careful, the pan is hot!  

Bring it all together
3

• Reduce heat to medium. Add tinned cherry tomatoes, chicken-style stock powder, cream (see ingredients), the brown sugar and the reserved pasta water. Cook until reduced slightly, 3-4 minutes. 
• Slightly crush cherry tomatoes with the back of a spoon. Stir through cooked fusilli until heated through and combined, 1 minute. 

Finish & serve
4

• Divide bacon and blistered cherry tomato fusilli between bowls.
• Top with grated Parmesan cheese to serve. Enjoy! 

Little cooks: Kids can add the finishing touch by sprinkling the cheese on top.
