Steps:
- Cook spaghetti in a large saucepan of rapidly boiling water until it is al dente.
- Drain.
- While that's cooking, remove the zest from the limes and finely shred to make one tablespoonful.
- Heat the oil in a large saucepan over a medium heat.
- If using bacon, add it to the hot oil first and cook until it starts to crisp before adding the lime rind, garlic, chilli and capers.
- Cook for a minute or until fragrant.
- If using prosciutto, stir it in at this point and cook for two minutes or until crisp.
- Add the spaghetti to the pan and toss to coat and heat through.
- To serve, toss the rocket and a bit of lime juice through the pasta and pile into serving bowls.
- Top with the marinated feta, a little of its oil, and a generous grinding of black pepper.
- Serve with a lime wedge on each plate, so people can add more if they like.
Tips:
- Use fresh, flavorful ingredients: The quality of your ingredients will make a big difference in the final dish. Use ripe, juicy limes, peppery arugula, and freshly grated Parmesan cheese.
- Don't overcook the spaghetti: Cook the spaghetti until it is al dente, or slightly firm to the bite. This will help it hold its shape and prevent it from becoming mushy.
- Reserve some of the pasta cooking water: The starchy pasta water can be used to help create a creamy, flavorful sauce. Reserve about 1/2 cup of the pasta cooking water before draining the spaghetti.
- Don't be afraid to adjust the flavors: The amount of lime juice, arugula, and Parmesan cheese can be adjusted to your taste. If you like a more tangy flavor, add more lime juice. If you like a more peppery flavor, add more arugula. And if you like a more cheesy flavor, add more Parmesan cheese.
Conclusion:
This spaghetti with lime and arugula is a light, refreshing, and flavorful dish that is perfect for a summer meal. The combination of bright citrus, peppery arugula, and salty Parmesan cheese creates a complex and delicious flavor profile that is sure to please everyone at the table.
