• Boil the kettle. Finely chop garlic. • Thinly slice pear and button mushrooms.
• Half-fill a large saucepan with boiling water. Cook fettuccine, uncovered, over high heat until ‘al dente’, 9 minutes. • Reserve pasta water (1/2 cup for 2 people / 1 cup for 4 people), then drain and return to saucepan.
TIP: 'Al dente' pasta is cooked through but still slightly firm in the centre.
• While the pasta is cooking, heat a large frying pan over high heat with the butter and a drizzle of olive oil. Cook diced bacon and mushrooms, stirring occasionally, until browned, 6-7 minutes. • Add garlic and herb & mushroom seasoning and cook until fragrant, 1 minute.
• Reduce heat to low and add cream (see ingredients), reserved pasta water and chicken-style stock powder to the frying pan. Stir to combine and simmer until slightly thickened, 1-2 minutes. • Add fettuccine and toss to combine. Season with pepper.
• In a medium bowl, combine the honey and a drizzle of balsamic vinegar and olive oil. Add pear and baby leaves and toss to coat. Season.
• Divide mushroom and bacon fettuccine between bowls and serve with pear salad. • Sprinkle over grated Parmesan cheese to serve. Enjoy!
