Method
- Bring a large saucepan of water to a boil and cook the pasta according to the packet instructions.
- Meanwhile, heat a large dry frying pan over high heat and fry the pancetta for 4-5 minutes until brown and crispy. Remove from the heat and set aside.
- In a food processor or high-powered blender, combine the avocado, lemon juice, basil and almond milk and blitz until smooth.
- Drain the pasta, reserving a little of the cooking water, and return it to the pan. Stir through the avocado sauce, chopped tomatoes, crisp pancetta and grated cheese. Serve immediately, garnished with extra cheese.
