Preparation

Step 1

Bring a large pot of water to a boil and add Salt so that it tastes like the sea.

Heat a large sauté pan over medium-high heat and add the Bacon. Render the Bacon for about 3 minutes, until it begins to crisp.

Add the Corn, Jalapeno and Garlic to the Bacon and cook for another 2 minutes, until the Vegetables soften.

Meanwhile, add the Spaghetti to the boiling water and cook until al dente, about 4 minutes. Remove the Pasta from the pot and add directly into the Bacon and vegetable mixture. Add a couple ladles of the pasta water, stirring to make a sauce.

Remove pan from the heat and add the chopped Parsley and a drizzle of good finishing Olive Oil. Serve immediately.
