10-12 large roasted, peeled chestnuts (crumbled big)
1/3 lb pasta
2 slices thick cut bacon
olive oil and butter
salt/pepper to taste
Boil pasta, meanwhile saute bacon in a little olive oil until crisp, remove from pan but leave drippings. Add ~1/2 tbsp butter and chestnuts, cook until pasta is done, at least 5 mins. Add 1/4 cup of the pasta water to the chestnut mixture, drain pasta and then add to the chestnut pan and stir together. Serve with bacon.
recipe adapted from various internet recipes. Next time, crush the chestnuts to make more of a paste and saute this paste in the bacon fat, maybe add some milk or cream, onion/shallot (just a little).
