Cooking Steps

• Half-fill a large saucepan with water, add a generous pinch of salt, then bring to the boil over high heat. • Cook orecchiette in boiling water until ‘al dente’, 11 minutes. • Reserve pasta water (1/4 cup for 2 people / 1/2 cup for 4 people). Drain orecchiette, then return to saucepan.

• Meanwhile, trim and halve green beans. • In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. • Add diced bacon and green beans, and cook, breaking up with a spoon, until golden, 6-7 minutes.

• Reduce heat to medium, add cream (see ingredients), baby leaves, the reserved pasta water and the salt and simmer, until slightly reduced, 1-2 minutes. • Remove pan from heat, add the cooked orecchiette and plant-based basil pesto and stir to combine.

• Divide rich bacon and pesto orecchiette between bowls to serve. Enjoy! ELEVATE ME: If you’ve added extra ingredients to this recipe, slice lemon into wedges. Squeeze over lemon juice. Sprinkle over grated Parmesan cheese and tear over parsley. Serve with any remaining lemon wedges.ges.
