Baked Knubbost pasta with bacon
The well-known baked feta pasta, made with our Knubbost. The cheese and tomatoes bake in the oven until soft, and then you stir them into a sauce right in the dish. Crisp bacon and fresh basil on top.
- Serves
- 4 people
- Time
- 40 minutes
Ingredients
- 400 g cherry tomatoes
- 200 g Knubbost naturell
- 2 garlic cloves, chopped
- 3 tbsp olive oil
- Salt and pepper
- 400 g pasta
- 150 g bacon
- Fresh basil
Method
- Heat the oven to 200 °C.
- Put the tomatoes in an ovenproof dish with the Knubbost whole in the middle. Scatter over the garlic, drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
- Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, until the tomatoes have burst and the cheese is soft.
- Meanwhile cook the pasta, and fry the bacon until crisp. Save a little of the cooking water.
- Stir the cheese and tomatoes together into a creamy sauce right in the dish. Toss in the pasta, with a little cooking water if the sauce is too thick.
- Top with the bacon and fresh basil and serve at once.
Tip
For a meat-free version, the green pasta with Knubbost is a good choice.
