Put your glut of runner beans to good use in this speedy supper

Directions

Ingredients

  • 100 grams Pancetta, smoked rashers

Step 1

Put a large pan of water on to boil for the pasta. Meanwhile, separate the rashers of pancetta and cook them in two batches (without oil) in a large non-stick frying pan until the fat on the pancetta is golden. Lift out onto a plate to crisp up.

Ingredients

  • 350 grams Fettuccine Pasta
  • 400 grams Runner Beans, trimmed and thickly sliced on the diagonal

Step 2

When the water is boiling, add salt and the pasta to the pan and boil for 6 mins. Tip in the beans, quickly return to the boil and cook for about 4 mins more until both the pasta and beans are just tender.

Ingredients

  • 6 tablespoons Creme Fraiche
  • 15 grams Fresh Chives
  • Parmesan Cheese

Step 3

Drain and tip into a large serving bowl. Toss with the crème fraîche, chives or basil and plenty of seasoning, then quickly tear in the crisp pancetta (keeping it quite chunky). Serve with the Parmesan, if you like, a simple tomato salad and some crusty bread.
