Got this recipe from an old episode of Naked Chef.

  • 10 pieces of pancetta or bacon
  • olive oil
  • 1 clove garlic, finely, chopped
  • handful thyme
  • 1/2 large savoy cabbage, halved, and, finely, sliced
  • handful parmesan cheese, grated
  • 1 lb. dried farfalle
  • salt
  • freshly ground black pepper
  • 1/2 lb. cheese, buffalo, mozzarella, diced into 1-inch pieces
  • toasted pine nuts
    1. In a pan, fry off pancetta in a little olive oil until lightly golden.
    2. Add garlic and thyme and soften.
    3. Place in Savoy cabbage with the Parmesan then stir around and put the lid on the pan.
    4. Cook for a further 15 minutes, shaking every now and again, while you cook farfalle in salted boiling water until al dente.
    5. When the cabbage is nice and tender, season and loosen with some nice peppery extra virgin olive oil.
    6. Toss the drained farfalle into the cabbage and at the last minute mix in mozzarella and pine nuts.
    7. Serve immediately.
