Pasta Carbonara

75g Pasta
1 Slice Lean Back Bacon cut into Small Pieces
3 Spring Onions cut into Small Pieces
1/2 Egg
40g Asda Light Soft Cheese with Garlic & Herbs
60ml Skimmed Milk
1tsp Olive Oil
10g Grated Parmesan Cheese
1/2tsp Fresh Parsley

Bring a large saucepan of water to the boil. Add the pasta and cook for 8-12 minutes, according to pack instructions. Meanwhile, heat the oil in a large non-stick frying pan. Add the bacon and spring onions and cook them for about 5 minutes, stirring often. Remove from the heat. Beat together the soft cheese and egg in a mixing bowl, then stir in the bacon and spring onions. Add the milk, half the cheese and the parsley (if using). Drain the pasta, then return it to the saucepan. Add the egg mixture and heat gently for 2-3 minutes, stirring constantly, until the mixture cooks and thickens. Serve, sprinkled with the remaining cheese.
