Cooking Steps

Boil a full kettle of water. Pour boiled water into a large saucepan over high heat with a generous pinch of salt.
Cook orecchiette in boiling water until ‘al dente’, 11 minutes.
Reserve pasta water (1 cup for 2 people / 2 cups for 4 people). Drain orecchiette, then return to saucepan.

Meanwhile, thinly slice pear into wedges.
Roughly chop onion (see ingredients). Thinly slice celery.
Finely chop garlic. Slice lemon into wedges.

In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat.
Add diced bacon, onion and celery and cook, breaking up with a spoon, until golden, 6-7 minutes.
Add garlic and cook until fragrant, 1 minute.

Add cream cheese and the reserved pasta water, stirring until combined, 2-3 minutes.
Remove pan from heat and stir through cooked orecchiette and half the grated Parmesan cheese until combined. Season to taste.

TIP: Add a splash of water if the pasta looks dry!

In a medium bowl, combine pear, rocket leaves, a good squeeze of lemon juice and a drizzle of olive oil. Season.

Divide bacon and cream cheese orecchiette between bowls.
Drizzle with some truffle oil
Top with lemony pear and rocket salad and garnish with remaining Parmesan cheese. Serve with any remaining lemon wedges. Enjoy!
