Whip up a flavorful pesto spaghetti with pancetta and cherry tomatoes in just 15 minutes!
Ingredients:
  • 375g spaghetti
  • 6 pancetta slices
  • 250g cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 130g pesto
  • 60g pkt Baby Rocket
  • Shaved parmesan, to serve
  • Basil pesto, extra, to serve
Instructions:
  • Boil spaghetti in a large saucepan as per packet instructions until al dente. Drain thoroughly, saving 1/4 cup (60ml) of cooking liquid.
  • Heat a large frying pan over medium heat. Cook the pancetta until crisp on both sides, about 1-2 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate and let it cool slightly before tearing into pieces. Then, increase heat to high.
  • Slide the tomato into the pan and cook, gently tossing, for 2-3 minutes until the tomato starts to soften.
  • Toss in the spaghetti, pancetta, pesto, half of the rocket, and reserved cooking liquid. Heat through for 1-2 mins while tossing. Serve in bowls and garnish with parmesan, the rest of the rocket, and extra pesto.
