Ingredients
 
 

  • 500 g spaghetti
  • 1 onion finely chopped
  • 100 g bacon cut into chunks
  • 1 l cooking/heavy cream 35% fat
  • 300 g parmesan grated
  • 200 g gouda grated
  • salt
  • pepper
  • extra virgin olive oil

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 210°C/410° F in convection mode.
  • Boil the pasta in plenty of salted water for 1-2 minutes less than the instructions on the package, so that it is al dente.
  • Heat a pan over medium heat. Add a little olive oil and the onion and sauté well, stirring with a wooden spoon.
  • Add the bacon, stir, and continue cooking for 1-2 minutes.
  • Transfer the mixture to an ovenproof dish. Add the boiled pasta, stir well, and set aside.
  • Heat a saucepan over medium to high heat and add the cooking cream along with the Parmesan. Simmer for 4-5 minutes, stirring continuously, until the sauce thickens. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Pour the sauce over the pasta, mix well, and sprinkle with more parmesan and gouda cheese.
  • Bake in the oven until the cheese has browned and serve.

Notes

Chef’s tip: Don't boil the pasta too much because it will cook more in the oven.
