Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Cook the Pasta

    Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the farfalle pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

  2. 2

    Cook the Bacon

    In a large skillet over medium heat, add the bacon lardons and cook until crispy. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.

  3. 3

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In the same skillet, add the asparagus pieces and sauté for 3-4 minutes until tender. Add the garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant. Stir in the peas and cook for another 2 minutes.

  4. 4

    Make the Garlic Cream Sauce

    Lower the heat and pour in the heavy cream. Stir well, allowing it to thicken for about 2-3 minutes. Add the black truffle oil and stir to combine.

  5. 5

    Combine Pasta and Sauce

    Add the cooked pasta and crispy bacon back into the skillet. Toss to coat everything in the garlic cream sauce. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Plate the pasta and garnish with chopped fresh parsley. Drizzle a little more black truffle oil on top if desired.
