Bacon and mushroom cream pasta. Works with any type of pasta! I edited this after Ninna's review, since I also never use butter and don't think bacon needs to be cooked in butter. To make it lighter, use evaporated milk instead of cream. Aussie measurements (1 tbsp = 20mls)
Ingredients:
cooking spray
4 slices bacon, cut into small pieces
1 brown onion, chopped finely
1 -2 garlic clove, crushed
150 g button mushrooms, thinly sliced

1 tablespoon cornflour, mixed with
2 tablespoons cold water
1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
2 tablespoons grated parmesan cheese
salt and pepper
500 g fettuccine pasta (to serve)
Directions:
1. Heat oil spray in large frying pan.
2. Add bacon, onion and garlic. Cook until onion softens, stirring gently.
3. Add mushrooms, cook until golden.
4. Stir in cream, bring to the boil.
5. Reduce heat and simmer until sauce reduces and thickens slightly.
6. Add cornflour water, bring to the boil again then instantly reduce heat, stirring constantly as sauce thickens.
