Chef Maciste's Maccheroncini al Fumè

oz Ridged sedanini pasta

Fresh liquid cooking cream

oz Smoked pancetta

Tomato puree

oz Emmentaler cheese

oz PDO grated parmesan cheese

+ 1/2 oz Caciottina cheese

Extra virgin olive oil

salt

chili peppers

Nutmeg

Coriander powder

black pepper

Dice the pancetta, caciotta and emmentaler. Then grate the parmesan, and mix all the cheeses in a little bowl.

Fill a large pot with 3/4 water, and bring it to a boil.

In the meantime, take a medium pot, add a drizzle of olive oil, and toss in the diced pancetta. Add the spice mix too, and let the meat brown for a few minutes.

Now add the tomato sauce to the pot with the meat, stir well, and let it simmer for at least 10 minutes.

When the water boils, salt it and add the pasta, then cook it al dente. That means about 2 minutes less than the total cooking time reported on the packing instructions.

In the meantime, the meat and tomato sauce will have simmered long enough. Add half of the cheese mix and the liquid cooking cream, then still well.

When the pasta is ready, drain it with a small strainer or a slotted spoon, and add it to the sauce pot.
