Pasta with herb cheese and bacon – number of persons: 3
Ingredients:
- 400 g pasta according to choice (not the long varieties, though)
- Herb cheese with garlic
- 250 g bacon bits
- cream herb/seasoning mixture with chives, basil, parsley (+/- 20 g) paprika powder
- Parmesan cheese
- pepper
- salt
Preparation:
Cook the pasta, fry the bacon bits until crisp, and add the cream. Heat up the mixture and add the herb
cheese (2 to 3 tablespoonfuls, to taste). Also add a very small amount of Parmesan cheese. Bring the
mixture to the boil (slightly) and sprinkle a small amount of paprika powder on top. If the sauce is too thick,
add a small amount of milk. Do not forget to add salt and pepper to taste. Take the pan off the stove and
douse the pasta with the sauce. Stir briefly and sprinkle the herbs on top of it. You may add some riccota
to enhance the flavor and get a creamy sauce. Instead of the herb / seasoning mixture, you may also add
1/3 of a bouillon cube.
