  1. PASTA BLISS

    Boil the kettle. Fill a pot with boiling water, add a good pinch of salt, and bring to a boil. Once boiling, cook the pasta for 8-10 minutes until al dente. Drain on completion, reserving a cup of the water. Toss some oil through the pasta to prevent sticking and return to the pot. Cover to keep warm.

  2. SEEDS & CRISPY BACON

    Place the Sunflower Seeds in a pan over a medium heat. Toast for 2-4 minutes until lightly browned, shifting occasionally. Remove from the pan on completion. Return the pan to a medium heat, with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the bacon for 2 minutes per side until golden and crispy. Remove from the pan and drain on paper towel. Roughly chop when cool enough to handle.

  3. BEGIN THE SAUCE

    Return the pan to a medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the diced Onion for 3-4 minutes until soft and translucent, shifting occasionally. Add the grated garlic and fry for about 1 minute, until fragrant, shifting constantly. Reduce the heat and pour in 200ml of water. Simmer for 6-7 minutes until reduced by ¾.

  4. LUXURIOUS CREAMINESS

    Loosen the cream with 60ml of milk or the reserved pasta water. Once the Onion sauce has reduced, stir through the loosened cream. Increase the heat and bring up to a slight simmer for about 1-2 minutes until slightly reduced. Mix through the Peas and chopped bacon, and cook for a further 1-2 minutes. Add ½ the grated hard cheese, the cooked pasta and mix until fully combined. Remove from the heat and season to taste.

  5. SOME FRESHNESS

    In a salad bowl, add the Salad Leaves with a drizzle of olive oil, vinegar, a sweetener of choice and some seasoning. Toss until fully combined.

  6. DIG IN!

    Dish up a generous mound of the creamy bacon pasta. Side with the fresh salad and sprinkle over the toasted Sunflower Seeds and the remaining grated cheese. Buon appetito!
