description
A very tasty and rich first course, certainly effective but also very simple to make: they are the Orecchiette with pancetta and cauliflower!
preparation
step 1
Clean the cauliflower, depriving it of the outer leaves and cut it into small florets.
step 2
Boil it in abundant salted water.
step 3
When the cauliflower is cooked, drain it and transfer it to a dish to let it cool, then cut it into small pieces.
step 4
In the meantime prepare the onion fry: finely chop the onion and place it in a large saucepan with the extra virgin olive oil.
step 5
Light the fire and fry the onion. As soon as it is golden, add the diced bacon and sauté for a few moments.
step 6
Then add the cauliflower into small pieces and continue cooking for another 5 minutes, so that the sauce is well seasoned. Finally remove from heat and let cool.
step 7
Put a saucepan with plenty of salted water on the heat, cook the pasta (preferably a short one) and drain it al dente.
step 8
When it is ready, add the cauliflower and pancetta seasoning and mix well.
step 9
Sauté over moderate heat for a few minutes until the orecchiette have incorporated the whole well.
step 10
Serve with freshly ground black pepper!
