An easy and delicious little meal that can be made quickly, pasta with bacon. Everybody loves bacon and combined with pasta the mix is amazing!
Ingredients:
* 2 pounds ripe tomatoes
* 1 pound bacon or more if desired
* 1 onion
* 1/2 pound (450g) of your favorite pasta (linguine, spaghetti, etc...)
* 3 knobs of butter
* half cup of Parmesan to serve
* Salt and freshly ground pepper
* 1 teaspoon fresh oregano
Cooking instructions:
Step 1: Peel the tomatoes: boil them in water boiling for one minute, then dip them in cold water for another minute and then peel their skin.
Step 2: Chop the tomatoes to small bits.
Step 3: Cut the bacon slices in small horizontal strips, all in the same direction.
Step 4: Put the bacon in an ungreased skillet (cooking bacon generates enough fat in itself) and cook it under medium-high heat until done. Discard all the bacon fat.
Step 5: Chop very thinly your onion, to lower the fire and to add it to the casserole. Drop the butter knobs in at this point
Step 6: Cook 5 more minutes and then add the tomatoes, the oregano and season to your taste.
Step 7: Allow your sauce to simmer under low setting for 10 minutes, mixing and stirring occasionally.
Step 8: Cook the pasta in your favorite pasta pot in boiling water following the manufacturer instructions on the package.
Step 9: Mix with the sauce so that it is nice and even. Throw in the pasta once ready.
Step 10: Fix each individual plate, sprinkle grated parmesan cheese on each plate and then serve.
