Ingredients

White pasta, dry

300 g

Calorie controlled cooking spray

4 spray(s)

Back bacon, raw

4 rasher(s), medium

Mushrooms

250 g

Spring Onions

1 medium

Garlic

1 clove(s)

Philadelphia Medium Fat Soft Cheese with Garlic & Herbs

250 g

Egg, whole, raw

1 medium, raw

Skimmed Milk

150 ml

Parmesan Cheese

30 g

Parsley, fresh

2 tablespoon(s)

Instructions

  1. Cook the pasta to pack instructions, or until al dente. Drain, reserving 100ml of the cooking water.
  2. Meanwhile, set a large nonstick frying pan over a medium heat and mist with cooking spray. Add the bacon, mushrooms, spring onion and garlic, and cook for 5 minutes, until softened. Remove and discard the garlic.
  3. In a mixing bowl, combine the soft cheese and egg, then stir in the bacon mixture, the milk, half of the Parmesan and the parsley. Season to taste. Put the spaghetti in a pan set over a low heat, add the cheese mixture and heat for 2-3 minutes, stirring, until the mixture has thickened. Add a little of the reserved pasta water to form a sauce.
  4. Divide the spaghetti between 4 plates and serve topped with the remaining Parmesan.
