Creamy Pasta with Bacon and Eshallots (Green Onions)

Once upon a time there was a humble house wife, contented with day to day life. Raising her children, performing the house hold duties which included feeding her near and dear. 

One day she bought a new microwave. It was all new and shinny and she admired it from afar. Then she opened it's one and only door and discovered a lovely book containing recipes inside. In great wonderment she placed it in her hands and slowly opened it and began to turn the pages. Before her a story began to unfold.

Once upon a time there was an onion all nicely cut up,

Four garlic cloves. They were no ordinary garlic cloves for they were grated and fine.

Four rashers of bacon, who were quite the conformists, decided to be all cut into small pieces, just like their friend the onion.

They gathered together on a hot dance floor. Firstly the garlic arrived.

It was followed closely by onion and bacon. They began dancing together for roughly about 5 to 10 minutes. 

Then a shower of shredded tasty cheese and thickened cream rained down on the dancers on the dance floor. The downpour of cheese and thicken cream danced about until they became indistinguishable from one another.

Lastly the cut eshallots fell into the mixture and it swirled for moment and were closely followed by freshly cooked pasta.

 A final dance sensation occurred and they became a tasty and easy meal for the housewifes family. 

The happiness that this meal bought has continued through out the years and up to this moment in time. Even now, with some grey hair on her head, the house wife continues to make this creamy pasta. Though she is positively sure that it was intended to be made in the microwave oven.

Okay, away from the story sequence, the ingredients are as follows:

1 cut onion

4 rashes of bacon, cut finely

4 garlic cloves, crushed

4 eshallots, cut finely

150 grams of grated cheese or any amount to you liking

thicken cream to your liking
250 grams pasta

The method

Fried the garlic in a pan with a tablespoon of olive oil.

The add the onions and bacon and cook until the onion and bacon are done.

Then add the cheese and thicken cream and mix until the cheese melts.

Add the eshallots and pasta and mix to combine. Then serve.

My kids love the recipe, so do my parents and my sister dearest. It is simple, quick and easy to make when you may be in a hurry. Make it more cheesy, more creamy or add mushrooms,  it is all up to you.
