Presenting a few of our favourite things: rich tomato sauce, bacon, Parmesan cheese and basil pesto. All of those deep flavours meld together wonderfully when tossed through spirals of trottole. Along with a crunchy radish salad, this'll be bumped up to a champion household dinner in no time!
Keep an eye out... Due to recent sourcing challenges, we’ve replaced fusilli with trottole and tinned cherry tomatoes with chopped tomatoes, which may be a little different to what’s pictured. Don’t worry, your recipe will be just as delicious!

• Boil the kettle. • Roughly chop tomato. Thinly slice radish. Finely chop garlic. • Pour boiling water into a large saucepan over a high heat. Cook trottole in the boiling water until 'al dente', 11 minutes. • Reserve some pasta water, then drain and return trottole to the saucepan.
TIP: 'Al dente' pasta is cooked through but still slightly firm in the centre.
• 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 diced bacon, breaking up with a spoon, until golden, 2-3 minutes. • Add garlic and herb & mushroom seasoning and cook until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. • Reduce heat to medium. Add crushed & sieved tomatoes, beef-style stock powder and some reserved pasta water (1/4 cup for 2 people / 1/2 cup for 4 people) and cook until reduced slightly, 3-4 minutes. • Stir through trottole, basil pesto, butter and brown sugar. Remove from the heat and season with salt and pepper.
• In a medium bowl, combine a drizzle of balsamic vinegar and olive oil. • Add tomato, radish and mixed salad leaves, then season. Toss to coat.
• Divide bacon, tomato and pesto trottole between bowls. • Top with grated Parmesan cheese. Serve with radish salad.
