Bacon & Cabbage Egg Noodles

Directions

1. 1
   In a large pot, add the olive oil and bacon and cook until starting to crisp. Drain and set the bacon back in the pot, reserving the bacon fat.
2. 2
   In a large pan, add the butter, bacon fat and onions and saute until soft. Add the cabbage and cook until tender and slightly golden (cabbage will reduce substantially in volume). Add a drizzle of olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
3. 3
   Cook noodles according to the package directions. Once cooked, drain (reserving some of the pasta water).
4. 4
   Transfer the cabbage mixture to the pot with the bacon pieces, then add the noodles to the cabbage pot.
5. 5
   Mix in the sour cream and toss to combine. Add some of the pasta water to moisten pasta, if required.
