Pasta Recipe Method
1. Line an oven tray with baking paper. Lay bacon on tray and transfer to a cold oven. Heat oven to 180°c. Cook for 20 minutes or until bacon is well colored. Transfer to plate lined with paper towel and set aside.
2. Meanwhile, cook pasta in a large saucepan of boiling salted water following packet instructions. Drain.
3. To make pangrattato, heat oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Add breadcrumbs and garlic and cook, stirring, for 5 minutes. Add parsley, basil and lemon rind and cook for a further 3-5 minutes or until browned.
4. Crush cherry tomatoes with a fork in a bowl to catch any juices. Whisk oil and vinegar in a separate bowl and season to taste. Break cooked bacon into small pieces.
5. Combine warm pasta, crushed tomatoes, bacon, half the parmesan and rocket in a large bowl. Add balsamic dressing and mix well.
6. Serve sprinkled with pangrattato and remaining parmesan.
Tip:
To make breadcrumbs, remove crusts from day-old bread slices. Cut into cubes. Process in a food processor until finely chopped.
