Cooking Steps
1
- Boil a large pot of salted water for the linguine.
- When boiling, add the linguine to the water and bring back to the boil.
- Cook until softened, 12 mins.
- Once cooked, reserve a cup of pasta water then drain the linguine in a colander and pop back in the pot, off the heat.
- Drizzle with oil and stir through to prevent sticking.
TIP: If you’re in a hurry you can boil the water in your kettle.
2
- While the pasta cooks, finely chop the chives (use scissors if you prefer).
- Place a pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil.
- Once hot, add the bacon lardons. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and equipment after handling raw meat. Cook lardons thoroughly.
- Fry until golden, stirring occasionally, 5-8 mins.
3
- Meanwhile, in a small bowl mix 1 egg (double for 4p) with the creme fraiche, cheese and a good amount of pepper.
- Once the lardons are ready, add the drained linguine to the pan.
- Cook on medium-high heat, stirring, until combined and warmed through, 2-3 mins.
- Remove the pan from the heat and add the egg. Stir together to coat well.
4
- Add the peas to the pasta and stir to warm through.
- Loosen the sauce with a splash of reserved pasta water if desired.
- Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Divide your creamy carbonara style pasta between bowls.
- Top with a sprinkling of chives.
