Cooking Steps

Get prepped
1

• Boil the kettle. 
• In a large saucepan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. 
• Cook diced bacon, breaking up with a spoon, until golden, 6-7 minutes.
• Meanwhile, thinly slice courgette into half-moons. Trim ends of asparagus
and roughly chop. Slice lemon into wedges.

Start the sauce
2

• To the saucepan with bacon, add courgette and asparagus and cook until 
tender, 4-5 minutes.
• Add Mediterranean seasoning and cook until fragrant, 1 minute. 

Add the pasta
3

• Reduce heat to medium, then add cream (see ingredients), chicken-style 
stock powder, fusilli and the boiling water (21/2 cups for 2 people / 5 cups 
for 4 people). Simmer, stirring occasionally, until fusilli is cooked through, 
12-15 minutes.
• Remove pan from heat, add baby spinach leaves and a squeeze of lemon 
juice. Stir to combine and season to taste with salt and pepper.

TIP: Add a splash more water if the sauce looks too thick.

Finish & serve
4

• Divide one-pot creamy bacon and asparagus fusilli between bowls. 
• Sprinkle over grated Parmesan cheese. Serve with any remaining lemon 
wedges. Enjoy! 

Little cooks: Add the finishing touch by sprinkling over the cheese!
