This pasta dish is like the Italian flag come to life and it's got everything you want: green veggies, the sweet pop of cherry tomatoes and salty, crispy bacon to finish. Dare you not to slurp.

Ingredients

  • 6 slices bacon

  • 4 garlic cloves, minced

  • 4 cups water

  • 1 cup 10% cream

  • 400 g spaghetti

  • 2 tbsp butter

  • 1/2 tsp salt

  • 3 cups small broccoli florets

  • 1 pint cherry tomatoes, halved

  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan

Instructions

  • Heat a very large non-stick frying pan over medium. Add bacon. Cook until bacon is crisp, 3 to 4 min per side. Transfer bacon to paper towel–lined plate.

  • Drain fat from pan, reserving 1 tbsp. Add garlic. Cook for 1 min. Add water, cream, pasta, butter and salt. Boil over medium-high, stirring often, until pasta has absorbed most but not all of the liquid, 10 to 12 min.

  • Stir in broccoli, tomatoes and Parmesan. Cook until broccoli is tender, 2 to 3 min. Crumble bacon overtop.
