Since I'm having a super lazy Sunday today, I cooked up a very simple spaghetti dish which I appropriately named "Mariye's Lazy Spaghetti".
This is so quick and easy to make, and is perfect for days when you don't want to slave over the cooker for hours on end.
I hope you like it :)
INGREDIENTS
- Spaghetti pasta
- Bacon (cut into small pieces)
- 6 cherry tomatoes (cut in half)
- Spring onion (cut into small pieces)
- Olive oil (I used lemon and dill flavour, but you can use plain too)
- Lemon juice
- Salt
- Pepper
- Garlic powder
RECIPE
1. Boil some water in a saucepan. Once the water starts to bubble, place your spaghetti pasta in to cook.
2. Whilst waiting for the pasta, place a small frying pan over medium heat. Once the pan is hot, put the bacon pieces in and fry until cooked (depending on you preference, you can have it crispy or not-too-crispy).
3. Put the cut-up cherry tomatoes and spring onions into a bowl. Add the cooked bacon and mix together.
4. Once the spaghetti is cooked, drain thoroughly and ensure that there is no water left in the saucepan. Leave the spaghetti in the saucepan and add a drizzle of olive oil. Mix together so that the olive oil coats all of the pasta.
5. Add salt, pepper and garlic powder to taste - it is better off starting little by little and adjusting the amounts as you go along.
6. Finish off with a few drops of lemon juice, again adjusting the amount to your preferred taste.
7. Transfer the spaghetti from the saucepan to the tomatoes / spring onion / bacon bowl. Mix together.
8. ENJOY!!
