Method

  1. Break pasta into shorter lengths or use broad flat pasta of the same dry weight. Boil in lightly salted water according to its packet.
  2. Meanwhile dice bacon and cook in a wide frying pan for 6–8 minutes until crisp.
  3. Drain pasta and toss into the pan with the bacon and its fat. Fold in crumbled curd cheese and sour cream over low heat.
  4. Warm gently for 1–2 minutes, season with pepper and serve immediately.

Broad egg noodles are traditional; using an egg-containing pasta adds an egg allergen flag. This version lists wheat-only pasta for consistent nutrition.
