Preparation Time: 15 minutes
Cooking Time: 25 minutes
Level of difficulty: Easy
Ingredients
350g dry pasta (penne) (I use wholemeal)
Olive oil extra light cooking spray
125g Weight Watchers bacon, thinly sliced
2 cloves garlic, crushed
4 individual shallots, ends trimmed, thinly sliced
400g button mushrooms, thinly sliced
1/4 cup white wine (60mL)
1 cup evaporated skim milk (250mL)
1 egg yolk
1/4 cup parmesan cheese, grated
2 tablespoons fresh parsley, finely chopped
Method
Cook pasta in a large saucepan of salted boiling water according to packet instructions. Drain and return to pan.
Spray a large non-stick frying pan with oil and place over medium-high heat. Add bacon and cook, stirring, for 3 minutes. Add garlic, shallots and mushrooms and cook for a further 3 minutes. Pour in white wine and reduce by half.
Whisk milk and egg in a jug. Reduce heat to low and add egg mixture. Cook, stirring, for 2-3 minutes or until sauce thickens slightly (do not boil). Remove from heat.
Stir in half parmesan and parsley and season to taste with salt and pepper. Add to pasta and toss until well combined.
Divide pasta among serving bowls. Top with remaining parmesan and serve immediately.
This is so yummy, I made it for tonight's dinner, it is a Weight Watchers Recipe and is only 6.5points per serve. I halved this recipe as I just made it for me and DP. It is low fat.
