1 clove of garlic (pressed)

2 Dried Chillies

Heat a saucepan with some oil and add the garlic.

Cook the pancetta until it starts to brown. Add the tomato, oregano, crumbled chilli, and a little water, cover and simmer for 40 minutes.

20 minutes before the 40 are up, bring a separate pan of salted water to the boil.

Add the Linguine, and cook until Al dente (c. 10 mins).

Sprinkle a generous amount of Grana Padano over the top, and enjoy with a hearty glass of red, perhaps try a Barbaresco.
