Instructions
- Peel the bottom of the asparagus spears and slice the spears on rounds.
- Heat the oil in saucepan and sauté the shallot. Add the asparagus and white wine. Cook over low heat for 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the saffron and cook the farfalle until al dente (not too soft bust still with a bite).
- Drain the pasta and toss with the asparagus. Add the butter and mix well.
- Crumble the bacon over the pasta, grate some Parmesan Cheese and sprinkle with parsley.
Notes
- Bacon:
- This recipe requires some crispy bacon to crumble and add to the pasta. I recommend slicing the bacon strips thinly and crispy it while the pasta water comes to a boil. This will allow it to be warm and ready to be enjoyed with your asparagus pasta.
