Pasta with pancetta (fettuccine all’Abruzzese) recipe from Abruzzo

400 g fettuccine pasta (14 ounces) (fresh

pancetta

onion

60 g Pecorino Romano (2 ounces) (freshly grated)

parsley (chopped)

basil leaves

tbsp extra virgin olive oil.

(for

black pepper. (to taste)

Cut the pancetta into cubes (if necessary)  and peel and finely chop the onion.

Sauté the onion in the olive oil till it starts to soften then add the pancetta. Cook both together until the pancetta starts to brown. Season with salt and pepper.

Put a pot of water on to boil for the pasta. Add salt once it starts to boil and bring tothe boil again. Cook the pasta al dente according to the instructions on the packet. Fresh fettuccine will only take about 5 minutes.

Before draining the pasta, add a couple of tablespoons of cooking water to the pan with the pancetta and let it cook for a few moments. (You can also use broth or stock instead) Save some of the pasta cooking water in a cup and then drain the pasta and add it to the pan. Mix together and add parsley and basil.

Mix the grated cheese in a bowl with some of the saved pasta cooking water to make a sauce, add this to the pan and sauté and stir for a minute so that all the ingredients are incorporated together well. Serve immediately with more parsley, black pepper and grated cheese as required.
