Tips:
1. For variety, you can change ingredients to tuna, shrimps or vegetables. You can also combine meat and seafood ingredients (i.e. bacon and shrimps) or seafood and vegetables, etc. Very versatile.
2. The original recipe was actually just bacon but since I have Prosciutto Ham in the freezer, I decided to add it in and it brought a bit of smoky flavor to the dish.
3. Take it easy on the red chilis. In order to achieve the right amount of spice, I recommend that you do not throw in all your red chilis in one go. What I did was drop a few slices of chilis when i mixed them with the bacon and prosciutto and when I thought the dish needed more spice, I dropped in a few more during the mixing of the pasta in the end. If you are not a lover of spice, you can eliminate the chili altogether.
Have fun cooking and enjoy!
