Cooking Steps

1

• Bring a medium saucepan of salted water to the boil. • Grate carrot. Thinly slice leek. Finely chop garlic. • In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. Cook panko breadcrumbs (see ingredients) and garlic, stirring occasionally, until fragrant and just toasted, 3-4 minutes. Season to taste. Transfer to a small bowl.

Little cooks: Older kids can help grate the carrot under adult supervision.

• Cook orecchiette in the boiling water, over high heat, until 'al dente', 8 minutes. • Reserve some pasta water (3/4 cup for 2 people / 11/2 cups for 4 people), then drain orecchiette and return to the pan. Drizzle with olive oil to prevent sticking.

• While the pasta is cooking, return the frying pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Add diced bacon and cook, breaking up with a spoon, until golden, 3-4 minutes (cook in batches if your pan is getting crowded). • Add leek and carrot, stirring, until softened, 4-5 minutes. • Add garlic & herb seasoning, crushed & sieved tomatoes and the brown sugar, and cook until fragrant, 1-2 minutes.
